De-Worming Your Horse

Lasting internal damage to your horse will result if you do not have a de-worming program in place.

There are literally dozens of types of worms that can infest your horse, some worms being more prevalent in different regions of the country and some are more seasonal.

As a rule of thumb you should de-worm your horse every 6 to 8 weeks.

De-wormers come in pellets, granules and pastes, which will give you a variety of choices for the most persnickety horse.

It is always best to rotate to a different brand of de-wormer every month or so to get the best results.
