It is important not to forget the potential parasite burden in adult dairy cows – gut roundworms can significantly impact milk production, especially in high-yielding dairy cows, if they are grazed or fed fresh grass. Learn about gut worms in adult dairy cows.

Moxodex LA provides season-long parasite control with a single injection. It kills lungworm, gut & stomach worms, lice & mites.

Worming animals during the dry period has the obvious benefit of minimising milk loss due to withdrawal periods, as well as ensuring animals are parasite free and as healthy as possible at the start of lactation. Learn more about using Albex Gold.

Learn which external parasites can affect housed cattle, management options for lice and mites, treatment options for lice and mites and which external parasites are a problem for cattle in the summer!

The main parasites of concern around housing are those that could have been picked up over the grazing season: gut worms (including Ostertagia); liver fluke; and potentially lungworm. Treatment may also need to cover external parasites of cattle.

Impact of Type II Ostertagia and why farmers need to be aware of it at this time of year. Learn what type II Ostertagia is, what the signs are, how to diagnose it, and how to prevent type II Osteragia in your beef herd.

Gut worms in beef youngstock – which worms are a problem and how to diagnose them

In this article we outline some sample plans for parasite treatment at housing time, including diagnostics. Plans are designed with different farm types and scenarios in mind.

We look at practical rotation of cattle wormers during the season and explain how it minimizes the development of resistance.

Chanelle Pharma is adding a new wormer active ingredient to its cattle anthelmintic range. Doramax pour-on contains doramectin and is available in three pack sizes, all automatic drenching gun-compatible.

In this article we examine where Doramax Pour-On would fit into parasite management strategies on dairy farms.

In this article we outline the most beneficial uses and timings for Doramax® Pour-On on beef and suckler farms.

Here, we look at were doramectin broadly sits among the other cattle worming ingredients available on the market currently.

We commonly hear from farmers who're concerned that they've dosed their cattle and the animals are still coughing, or even coughing harder. This most typically happens with clear wormers, and is as a result of worm material being expelled.

Here we look in more detail at dairy cows' immuntiy against lungworm and what exactly a high Ostertagia ODR reading means in practical terms.

We look at lungworm larvae as a cause for coughing in cows this season and in addition, examine what Ostertagia ODR readings from bulk milk samples mean.

Dairy dry off dosing is the topic for this week's Farm Health First vlog. Ciarán outlines some simple regimes based on a farm's fluke risk. Albex 10%, Tribex 10%, Animec Pour On and Rumenil can all be worked into a dosing plan.

This week on Farm Health First we answer your questions on Albex, the popular fluke and worm drench for cattle and sheep. Ciarán outlines what place it has on beef and dairy farms, the withdrawal periods, dosage rates, doses per pack and timing post-housing.

Calves born in the spring will now be grazing hard enough to take in worm larvae. Visual symptoms of gastrointestinal worm infection include dirty back-ends (and condition loss in large-burden scenarios).

Ostertagia o. is the main stomach worm affecting cattle. It is also known as the brown stomach worm and adults are around 8mm in length.

A common complaint in the second half of the grazing season, Ciarán looks at why mature cows might be dirty or scouring at the moment and offers some advice and fixes.

We commonly hear from farmers who're concerned that they've dosed their cattle and the animals are still coughing, or even coughing harder. This most typically happens with clear wormers, and is as a result of worm material being expelled.

This week, Ciarán describes how farmers should pick which positive benefit of Animec® Pour-On appeals the most to their farm system.

Ciarán lays out some important facts and dispells myths about Pour-on wormers.

Cattle are more prone to respiratory issues like pneumonia than any other species. Here, Ciarán compares their lung capacity with other animals and talks about stressors than can trigger these lung issues.

In our second video, Ciarán discusses exactly what the presence of eggs tells us about the parasites in the animal. We also go through the process of taking a sample correctly.

In part 1 of 2, Ciarán explains what basic faecal samples in cattle and sheep can detect and what else we can find with other types of preparation and analysis.

Recently, there has been reports of cattle presenting with hoose or husk symptoms. This coughing is likely caused by lungworm. But why are we only seeing problems now, suddenly? Ciarán answers that question here.

This week we look at macrocyclic lactones, more commonly known as clear wormers. What is special about these products versus yellow and white wormers? How do we use them properly while ensuring we build the animal's own natural immunity?

Yellow wormers, or levamisoles, are the second family of wormers for use in cattle and sheep. Here, Ciarán goes through the key points for getting the most from yellow wormers and where they fit in practically.

This week we take a look at the benzimidazole class of wormers, better known as 'white wormers'. Ciarán describes how to use them effectively and the important charactersitics of products in this wormer class.

In out latest blog, we outline the different wormer classes, which parasites the products in these classes can treat and some of the pitfalls to be avoided around identifying wormers.

We examine coughing cows in sheds this week - a common occurrence in the weeks post housing. Ciarán looks at the most common causes and talks about when we should take action. Is it lungworm? Could it be your ration? Is it simply environmental conditions?

This weeks Farm Health First vlog looks at scouring cattle and loose dungs after housing. What are the potential causes? Did my dose not work? Do I need to dose them again? Can I use straw to dry them up? Should I remove water?

Our latest Farm Health First vlog covers fluke and worm combination products with a focus on Animec Super injection. These are popular at housing. We cover dose rates, when they should/shouldn't be used, picking a needle, follow up treatments and withdrawals.

This week's Farm Health First vlog covers quarantine doses for bought-in cattle. Ciarán outlines a simple three-point plan to help new cattle thrive and prevent the build up of anthelmintic resistance. Albex works well here. Brought to you by Chanelle Pharma.

Ciarán looks at the active ingredients and products farmers can use to dose beef cattle this back-end.

We are often told by dairy farmers that they routinely worm cows during the year, regardless of whether symptoms of parasite infection are present or not, and immediately see lifts in yield. Why is this?

There are three wormer classes for use in cattle; white (BZs), yellow (LVs) and clear (MLs). Each class has its own attributes and limitations when it comes to dairy farms.

When deciding on timing between dosing treatments, it’s important to know a couple of things about the products.
