Barbara Ruch of Walnutport Pennsylvania asks how to tell if a horse has worms how to make him take medicine and what the odds are after treatment. Internal parasites are common in crowded stables so most professional farms run a four to six time yearly worming program set up by a veterinarian for diagnosis and product choice.
Practical plan uses two to three feedings with worm medicine and occasional stomach tube dosing by a veterinarian. Some horses resist medicated feed. mix with feed, add molasses, and shorten rations before administration. Post treatment egg counts in manure detect parasites, with samples sent to a vet or state lab. adult strongyles are common and serious year-round.
Ascarids and pinworms threaten young horses with stomach hatchings and severe itching. Larvae travel through blood to lungs and liver causing damage. Veterinary drugs help, but sanitation and manure composting are crucial to interrupt parasite development. Next week will discuss external parasites.
