Wormers

Wormers

Wormers are a vital part of a horse's ongoing veterinary maintenance. Horse wormers or equine wormers as they are otherwise known in the equestrian community, help control worms in your horse to keep internal parasites at bay. These worms have been known to cause fatal colic, weight loss, poor performance, rough coat, pot belly and stunted growth.

Opinions

Opinions

Opinions vary on which wormers to use and at which time of year to use them, of course the reality is commercial thinking plays it's part too. However, that said, the supply of equine wormers is very vigorously regulated and all SQP's are duty bound to provide the best possible advice and guidance to you the end user. Here at www.Equi-store.co.uk we help and give our opinion and use the information we have gathered to provide guidance with your worming planning. It is worming ingredient can lead to resistance. We must adopt a rotational approach to product choice and not simply use the same wormers time after time

Horse Wormers - Young Horses

Horse Wormers - Young Horses

When using wormers in the early months of a horse's life one should always check or take advice as some wormers are not suitable for foals just as some wormers are not suitable for mares in foal or lactating. Special care should be taken when treating young foals to ensure an active ingredient suitable for use on foals is selected. Eqvalan wormers can be used from 6-8 weeks of age and once administered should be repeated every 8 weeks until the foal is 18 months of age. However, if Large Roundworm is a problem the foal should be treated at 6-8 weeks of age and then every 6 weeks thereafter. Our horse wormers are some of the cheapest in the UK with free delivery included. We have a helpful Information Chart, which offers suggestions of which wormers to use and the most relevant worming products for each season of the year.

Anthelmintics (Horse wormers) also known as De-Wormers

Today's modern equine wormers offer the horse owner a great deal of flexibility, control and value for money. The above selection of easy pick horse wormers that are available from www.equi-store.co.uk with free UK delivery. Economic worming schemes with an easier management structure using a worming programme with wormers like Equest gel which offers dozing at 13 week intervals with one syringe delivering enough active ingredients to treat up to 575Kg horse. Equimax wormer available in a syringe or as tablets and with one single syringe being sufficient to treat up to a 700 Kg horse this represents really good value, being effective against most internal parasites that affect your horse such as Tapeworm, Small and Large Redworms, Pinworm and Bots which as we know are not worms never the less can be a problem to horses in certain regions of the UK. Equest Pramox gel although a very effective wormer and has longer lasting active ingredients than Equimax, one has to be mind full using one syringe of Equest Pramox gel will only treat up to a 575 Kg horse and it must NOT be used on foals under 6 1/2months or mares that are pregnant or lactating. Strongid P can be administered as paste or Granules which can be mixed in the horses feed ideal if you have difficulty administering from a syringe. Strongid P and when used at double dosage will also take care of Tapeworm but will NOT kill Bots. For Tapeworm ONLY in horses Equitape wormer works well but will only target Tapeworms and no other equine parasites. Eraquell and Noromectin Paste are Ivermectin based wormers giving good value as each syringe will treat up to a 700 Kg horse and protection against almost all equine worms and Bots with the exception of Tapeworm. Eqvalan paste is another good Ivermectin based wormer. However one syringe of Eqvalan paste would only be enough to treat a 600 Kg horse. This is just one of the reasons why before using any of the horse wormers the warnings/contra-indications should be studied and can be found on or in every pack of wormer sold by Equi-store. If you require reading the warnings/contra-indications before making a purchase you will find a link on the products pages of www.equi-store.co.uk All Equi-store wormers are sourced in the UK and a proven efficacy against the parasites mentioned above. I have deliberately not mentioned Panacur or the Fenbendazole group of wormers as they are known to have resistance problems in certain parts of the UK. Having said that Panacur 5day equine guard still has a place in the yard particularly when new horses are brought in to the yard and have to be quarantined. Panacur 5day guard is an ideal wormer to use at this time provided there is no history of resistance. Although this is a small list of wormers, and there are many more available out there each one sold by Equi-store has a proven efficacy and represents great value which includes FREE UK DELIVERY. When we talk of wormer rotation bear in mind that it is the active ingredients that should be rotated and not merely the brands. Wormer rotation is gone in to in more detail on a number of pages within www.equi-store.co.uk another point to remember is most horse owners often under estimate the true weight of their horse. The body weight of the horse affects the amount of wormer each animal is given. If the owner does not administer the correct amount of wormer required for the body weight of the horse not only are they throwing their money away, more to the point they are at risk of worms becoming resistant to the active ingredient in the wormer. Resistance is happening at the moment with some wormers; we should be aware of this and be watchful in future that we use the correct amount of wormer in relation to the body weight of the horse. Remember we as horse lovers have it in our power and must not allow there to be any more resistance to be built up by equine parasites. We must be responsible and not irresponsible when using horse wormer

Equi-store's equine worming programme is administered by Samuel McAllister SQP, who is registered with Animal Medicines Training Regulatory Authority (AMTRA). Also, The Animal Medicines Inspectorate (AMI) of the Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) carries out inspection and approval of premises on behalf of the Secretary of State. Equi-store stock Equestrian Worming brands from the major manufacturers, Intervet, Virbac, Merial and Fort Dodge whose brands include Equest, Strongid, Equimax, Panacur, Eraquell, Eqvalan, Equitape. Some of these brands are available as Tablets, pastes and granules such as Panacur, Strongid-P, Eraquell and Equimax. The most suitable rotation of active ingredients is thought to be between Ivermectin (Eqvalan) and Pyrantel (Strongid-P) for the summer period and holding back Moxidectin ( Equest ) for the most serious infestation of small Redworm if needed. Our horse wormers are some of the cheapest in the UK with free delivery included. We have a helpful Information Chart, which offers suggestions of the most effective worming products for each season of the year. The importance of Targeted Strategic Dosing cannot be overstated as untreated parasitic infestations can cause many equine health problems. Possible indicators of parasite infestation include, tail rubbing, colic, loss of condition, poor performance, coughing, anaemia, diarrhoea and if untreated possible death.
