Worming on its own only does half the job

Lungworm is a severe and often fatal disease. Outbreaks continue to rise year on year. The number of cases of lungworm has risen dramatically since the 1990s.

The result? Milk yields melt away, fertility drops and calving periods extend. The cost of drugs, labour and veterinary treatment build up. Worst of all, valuable animals die or have to be culled.

A combination of vaccination and worming effectively controls lungworm in cattle.
