This message is from: "jerrell friz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > is there a wormer out there that is considered less toxic than the standards, -------------------------------------------------------------------
Answering Laurie's question. there sure is, Called" Herbal Tonic", by Dynamite , you can go to www.dynamiteonline.com look in horse products.. I use it every two months on my dogs, cats, horses. I have a 22 year old Aussie[ yup! 22,],, hard to believe. Never been vaccinated. There are only a few wormers that will kill the tapeworm. One is Equimax, I use this one when I have to,,I too,, try not to use a product with ivermectin in it. I do NOT use any product by FORT DODGE !!! Also Pfizer has a cd-rom [free] called the parasite puzzle [got mine at the local feed store]. I HIGHLY recommend viewing this, it addresses the tapeworm, now that new research is out on the tapeworm. A former client of mine lost her mare from tapes, she paid over 8k in vet. bills. My daughter was lucky, she still has her gelding, but, after 10k in vet. bills, again,, suspect,,, tapeworms. The only way to diagnose tapes is with a new blood test. Eggs are carried through a host mite in the grass. I suspect that the tapeworms cause ulcers deep down in the digestive system, this is where ivermectin can get into the blood. Hope this helps, Jerry Friz, Anderson, Ca.
