Wormer Question

[mollymurphy]

Just wondering if anyone could tell me about the year supply of wormers you can get - like the Equest/Equitape ones? Are they really all you need?

And what's the difference between this

and this

Would you use one one year and one the next?

Just a bit confused! We were thinking of getting the whole yard to just buy a pack each, but we dont know which ones. We're all rubbish!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

You use one tube every 13 weeks, Pramox in spring and autumn, and Equest in summer and winter, the box contains enough for one average horse for one year You can continue to use this system for several years, having spoken to Dodge, the manufacturers and suppliers, they assure me that there is no known resistance and infact you could continue to use this wormer for the lifetime of your horse

Yup, IMO the best worming program on the market. I believe I am right in saying it is the only brand of wormer that does absolutely every worm type, others claim to and then if you read the small print they manage to hide the fact that their wormer doesn't do encysteds etc.

The difference between the 2 links you put up is basically the pramox wormer is one syringe and is a combination of equest and equitape, so means you just use one tube instead of 2.
