Our pin worm problem continues or rather has risen it's ugly head again so our vet has advised us to use an ivermectin wormer, dose them as normal and give them half a tube rectally too :/

I've never had to worm rectally before and I know at least one of our lot is going to try to kick the daylights out of us in the process so any tips to make it go as smoothly as possible would be much appreciated... not looking forward to this at all :(

Also when we dosed for pin worm in August we used pancur 5 day at first and then eqvalan. Eqvalan is ivermectin based so do we use another wormer or can we use this again? I know normally you would change wormers to prevent resistance but in this instance I'm a bit confuused :o
