Worm Awareness

No treatment exists to prevent worm infestation permanently, the best solution is to kill any worms that may be present on a regular basis. Beaphar has developed a modern range of safe and effective medicines that will control worm infestation. Even if a pet owner looks after their pet’s hygiene well, worm infections can still occur. Pet owners might spot one centimetre long “maggots” or things resembling grains of rice in their pet’s faeces. These are little parts of a tapeworm that have come off inside the pet. Roundworm are also frequent “visitors” to pets – these can be seen in vomit and faeces. The roundworm is long and thin, generally white, yellow or red in colour. Worms can cause problems for both humans and animals. To minimise the risk, it is important to worm pets on a routine basis.
