Hi,
I am considering producing a non-biased equine worming guide aimed at horse owners.
Having re-searched the market there is currently no up to date worming guides, which give an explanation into why we should use certain wormers at different times of year for different parasites, why it is so important to rotate the drug group you use and also why faecal egg counts although useful 1) do not give a true representation of the horses worm burden as the only count eggs when they are at a certain stage and 2) just because a faecal egg count comes back as low doesn't mean you shouldn't worm your horse.
Having based by university dissertation on this topic i already have the up to date information needed, and the survey i conducted nationwide across the UK highlights the gaps in horse owners knowledge.
My most important aim within this project, is to ensure all the scientific knowledge horse owners need is written in a way that makes it understandable and easy to follow.
So I my question is, do you guys think this would be of use ??
Responses welcome
Thanks
