Horse Insecticides & Wormers

Protect your horse from internal and external pests

Parasites like worms, lice, flies, and ticks can cause serious health issues for horses if not properly managed. Using insecticides and wormers regularly is essential for keeping your horse healthy and comfortable.

Why parasite control matters

Untreated parasites can lead to weight loss, poor coat condition, colic, and even long-term organ damage. Regular preventative treatment is the simplest way to reduce these risks.

Choosing the right products

We stock a range of targeted treatments including broad-spectrum wormers, fly sprays, pour-ons, and insect repellent gels. Always select products based on your horse's age, size, lifestyle, and specific pest risks.

Establishing a parasite prevention routine

Most horses benefit from a worming schedule every 6–12 weeks, depending on grazing habits and seasonal changes. Insect control may need to be daily during warmer months or fly-heavy environments.

Using products safely

Always follow dosage instructions and apply insecticides in well-ventilated areas. If in doubt, consult your vet about the best treatment plan for your horse.
