Spilyay Tymoo, Warm Springs, Oregon Page 9 May 1, 2013 1 Developing a deworming program for your horse Internal parasites or worms are a constant concern for equine owners. Parasites can cause ill ness, digestive upset and damage, and colic episodes. All horses have some present in their system. The horse picks up parasites from its environm ent and through other horses’ manure. These parasites develop from the larvae stage to adult stage inside the horse while robbing the horse o f nutrients and damaging the digestive tract lin ing and other parts o f the body. The different classes o f parasites that can affect a horse are: Large and Small Strongyles : found in all age classes o f horses. The larvae o f large strongyles migrate through parts o f the body, and burrow into the walls o f the arteries that are the primary blood supplier to the small and large intestine. This m i gration can result in the formation o f blood clots, disrupting the blood flow to th e in te stin e s. Sm all strongyles attach to the large in testine wall and can cause diar rhea, loss o f appetite, and colic. Pin Worms: Pin worms are found in horses o f all ages. Horses ingest eggs from feed or w ater contaminated with manure, or by licking walls or fences. The lar vae mature in the horse’s intes tines, then as adults, the females move to the rectum and deposit sticky eggs around the anal area. The damage caused by pinworms is external due to intense itching and scratching o f the tail area and loss o f tail hair. Ascarids (Round W orm s):These internal parasites are m ainly a problem in young horses under a year o f age. The round worms cause poor growth, rough hair coat, pot belly, chronic respiratory problems and some times death. M ost o f their dam age is caused by their migration to the liver and lungs. Bots:The adult bot fly lays eggs on the horse’s legs, chest, throatlatch or chin areas. Some can hatch due to licking. The lar vae burrow into the horse’s mouth tissue causing ulcers. After about 3 weeks they emerge and move to the stomach and sma.ll intestine where they suck blood, causing inflammation and ulceration o f the lining. B'ot flies lay their eggs in the fall so control should be ad dressed by removing the eggs on the horse’s body and deworming with a bot specific product (see chart) after the first hard frost.

They trayel to the the area where the small intestine and cecum meet. H igh num bers can cause colic. These parasites are less o f a prob lem in dry areas o f the country. Deworming management is important to keep parasite counts low. Fecal exams can help deter m ine the types and num ber o f parasites present. O w ners can check with the Extension Office or they can take fresh samples o f manure to their local Veterinarian to run the fecal exam and provide feed b ack on w h at w orm s are present. Resistance to worming products is becoming more o f a concern, so only use dewormers w h en n e e d e d an d in p ro p e r amounts. Some horses will natu rally carry a heavier parasite load than others and may require a spe cific worming program. This is called selective deworming. Some program s schedule a change o f product with each deworming. It is im portant to change class o f dewormers and not ju st product name. This is called rotational de worming. If a new horse arrives on the property w ithout any previous colic. It is som etimes better to give a less effective or less broad ‘; dewormer such as a Benzimida zole or Pyrimidine product to avoid digestive concerns. Recording the weight, product and amount given c each time is part o f a good man- , agement system. management history, it is advisable to be cautious with the first dew orming. If the horse is heavily in fested with parasites, deworming with a very broad and effective dew orm er; i.e., an Iverm ectin product, could cause an extensive kill, causing digestive blockage and .'PÌwiBrt Santo Ivermectin Dots sot Itili ZlmertnrcJRtoMlin-1 Minti d i t e tW Ivcuraectin * p riziquatoil Contact Info: OSU Extension Warm Springs Morning Rae Ferris 541.553.3238 morning.ferris@oregonstate.edu Special Thanks to Sara Rogers & Lisa Dubisar for volunteering their time during the photography workshops!
