Prevention over cure is advised for porcine worm troubles. Eggs hatch after ingestion and migrate to the lungs causing coughing pneumonia or stunted growth. Clean pens with boiling water and lye, keep sows and piglets clean, and move to fresh pasture with clean water and bedding changes.

Alfalfa draws soil nutrients heavily and more is removed when cut for hay than microbes return. When used as a cover crop the first yearly cutting is allowed, leaving two later cuttings on the ground. Do not keep alfalfa beyond three years before resuming clean culture for about two years and replanting a cover crop.
