Deworming & parasite control

What’s covered

Parasite control for every animal we see

Plans are matched to species, age, grazing and the time of year, not given out of habit.

• Dogs & cats

  Regular worming and flea and tick control matched to your pet’s lifestyle and household.

• Cattle

  Strategic deworming and tick control timed to the rains, protecting growth and milk yield.

• Goats & sheep

  Targeted deworming guided by eyelid checks, body condition and faecal egg counts.

• Pigs & poultry

  Worm control and mite and lice management planned around production cycles.

• Horses & donkeys

  Worm control planned with faecal egg counts, not guesswork.
