Re: [AlpacaTalk] Re: m-worm and ivermec

 

M-worm doesn't become resistant to Ivomec, it's other parasites that do. And I agree, if you live  in M-worm territory, monthly dosing with Ivermectin is absolutely mandatory. It really has been discussed on this and probably every other camelid group for years. I am thankful we don't have it in PNW.

Having lost an alpaca to M Worm, I feel that in the Northeast where deer are so abundant, monthly doses for prevention are 

better than not doing them for fear of resistance. As far as the rest of the country, perhaps monthly testing is good enough
