We must change worming habits before it is too late

NEW guidelines on equine worm control have been launched – with the warning: “If horse owners don’t make these changes now, it will be too late.”

Cross-sector group CANTER (Controlling ANTiparasitic resistance in Equines Responsibly), has published a “crucial” document setting out key principles, to support vets, pharmacists and SQPs (suitably qualified persons) in prescribing and recommending suitable parasite control strategies.

INCREASING THREAT

THE guidance, written by vets, parasitologists and other experts, is aimed at tackling the increasing threat of wormer resistance. H&H has reported that there has been resistance recorded to all the classes of wormers available, with no prospect of new drugs.
