Natural worming programmes
With an increasing risk of resistance to wormers, Worm Egg Counts are perfect as part of your targeted worming programme!
Why is carrying out a Faecal Worm Count Important?
Equine worming programmes cause owners much anxiety and confusion! We often hear, “which wormer do I use, which brand, how often, when do I use which ingredient?” Over the years there has been an increase in resistance to the active ingredients used in wormers. It is therefore important that we do not worm our horses when it is unnecessary to do so, which is better for our horses and helps prevent the development of resistance of wormers.
Natural horse worming programmes are becoming increasingly popular, especially with owners who’s horses, ponies and foals are sensitive to the chemicals found in modern wormers. There are of course some situations that may require owners to worm their equines with these products.
Whether you are following a natural worming programme or not, we recommend that you carry out a worm count every 10 – 12 weeks for a healthy equine. This significantly lowers the risk of resistance to chemical wormers should they be needed and allows you to target any causes for concern.
Furthermore, It is advisable to test new horses prior to turning them out on to pasture, to help prevent contamination.

Have you carried out a FEC and Equisal tapeworm test for your horse/s recently? If not then they are available on our website.THE WORM THAT TURNED: ANTHELMINTIC RESISTANCE IN TAPEWORM🪱
It's important to target worming only to horses that require treatment because anthelmintic resistance is now a real threat to effective control of tapeworm.
With FEC tests offering poor sensitivity for detecting tapeworm infection, the EquiSal test measures tapeworm-specific antibodies in saliva. This enables sensitive detection of infection to inform anti-tapeworm treatments.
Analysis of the 2015-2023 UK EquiSal dataset (below) demonstrates that, overall, only 1 in 3 horses is recommended for treatment, considerably reducing anthelmintic applications and, thus, protecting efficacy.
EquiSal Tapeworm kits are available via >500 veterinary and SQP stockists in the UK. Through postal collection points, the service is accessible for testing horses in the EU.

🐑Now is the time to start faecal egg counts (FECs) on February and March-born lambs, says SCOPS🐑
While roundworm activity so far this season has been relatively low, the Sustainable Control of Parasites in Sheep (SCOPS) Group says the recent temperature increase means this could change quickly on many farms, as warm, damp conditions encourage larvae to hatch from eggs and develop into infective larvae on pastures.
