Worm count doesn't show up tape worm though does it ?

Fit tapewormer in as necessary, may be just Equitape or maybe OP covered it last time as she doesn't say. Definitely NOT continuous wormers as suggested above.

Worm for tapeworm in the autumn routinely and an extra dose in spring in a high risk situation. Alternatively you can blood test for tapeworm.
Worm for encysted red worm in winter - dec-jan time.
Everything else shows up in a worm count so worm count every three months and worm as appropriate. Westgate labs or your vet can provide a tailored programme.
