According to a new Pfizer Animal Health website, a worm control strategy that considers all the factors involved is a better way to maintain the health of your horse. This useful website counsels horse owners to manage the worm burden in each individual horse with the following strategy:
- Manage
- Test
- Plan
- Dose
"This website aims to give you an insight into the factors that need to be considered in worm control, including tips on pasture management, diagnostic tests, key planning issues and dosing information, to provide you with a balanced and thorough approach to worm control."
"The good news is that you can influence many of these factors by being proactive, but this website is just a guide and does not contain all the answers. This is why it's important to consult your vet or SQP ('Suitably Qualified Person') on the specific needs of your horse."
