Natural worming programmes? Faecal worm counts are an essential part of a natural worming programme. Pesky parasites find their way into most dogs and cats lives therefore it is essential that we have a targeted worming programme to help protect them from infestation. So whether you chose to worm or not, worm count testing plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy pets.
We are always happy to liaise with your vet where needed.
Faecal Egg Counts (FECS)
Faecal Egg Count (FEC) is a method of determining how many internal parasite Eggs are present in a particular dung sample. It may also be possible to determine the different types of worms or other parasites present.
If eggs are found in a fecal sample it shows that worms are present in the animal.

**SCOPS** post 📣🪱📣🐑
Are you a sheep farmer that has experienced recent rainfall following the previous very dry and warm weather? If so, the Sustainable Control of Parasites in Sheep (SCOPS) group is urging you to be extra vigilant in monitoring parasite burdens and lamb performance in your flock.
Nerys Wright, Technical Adviser for SCOPS, warns that the combination of recent rainfall and earlier dry conditions could create a perfect storm for increased worm challenges on pasture.
