Do you know your horse’s parasite risk?
Why does this matter, and how can you use that knowledge to build a test-based programme that keeps your horse healthy while helping slow the spread of wormer resistance?
Factors such as age, management, and environment all affect parasite risk — and this year’s exceptionally dry summer has added new pressures. As we head into winter, it’s more important than ever to keep worm control on track and understand how resistance is changing the way we manage horses.
What you’ll learn:
- Why a risk-based approach matters for every horse
- How seasons and management affect parasite burdens
- Practical testing and treatment strategies
- Real examples from Miri’s own yard
- Q&A with our experts
🎤 Speakers:
- Claire Shand (Director & SQP, Westgate Labs)
- Professor Jacqui Matthews (Austin Davis Biologics)
- Hosted by Miri Hackett
