I was planning to worm my two horses with Equest Pramox today, put them straight back onto the same pasture for 48hours and then move them to a new field. However I have just noticed the following: "In order to limit the impact of moxidectin on dung fauna and due to insufficient data regarding environmental risk of praziquantel, horses should not be turned out onto pasture within 3 days of treatment." The horses live out 24/7 all year, I have one stable and small concrete area fenced but they would go mad in here for 3 days and I have no hay at the moment!
 
It wont hurt the horses, just there may be possible damage to the fauna, but they dont know as not enough studies. I doubt many people actually read that part of the lable!!!

Thank you. I thought that's what it meant and guessed the majority of people do still turn out... I just wanted to check. I will poo pick the old pasture anyway...
