Well Vinnie. I worm twice a year, September/October when finished breeding and again around paddy's day before i start. I used flubenvet this year. Seems to do a good job. Friend got some from the UK. There is organic wormer vermex. From what i,ve heard you have to use it once a month and its only precautionary it won't actual kill the worms they have only stops them picking them up.As far as i know there is no egg withdrawal with either.
