A WEC is used to identify infestation of common adult worm species including small (cyathastomins) and large adult redworms (strongyles) and large roundworms (ascarids) in your horse. Our method of sampling is sensitive to an accuracy of 50 epg. Current thinking suggests that counts of 200 epg per gram or less are considered low and often it is recommended that these animals are left untreated. It is thought that a low level of infestation enhances the horse’s natural immunity to the parasites and provides a sensitive refugia population. Horses with counts greater than 200 are usually treated with an appropriate wormer. Prior to any treatment or absence of treatment please consult your veterinary surgeon and follow the data sheet recommendations enclosed with the wormer. Worm egg counting involves a process whereby a known amount of fresh dung is put through a precise process, allowing eggs produced by roundworms to be identified and counted under a microscope. A calculation then converts this to the number of eggs per gram (epg) of faeces. Eggs per gram is a standard measure which gives an estimate as to the number of eggs contaminating the pasture from individual horses. Worm egg counts do not give an acurate assessment of encysted larvae, bots, pinworms or tapeworm.

Samples are of greater diagnostic value if performed during the grazing season ie eg March to October. Worm egg counting helps reduce routine worming of horses by targeting only the horses that require treatment, thus reducing resistance and saving you money on unnecessary treatments. Includes the lab fee so once the sample is received at our equine veterinary lab it can be quickly processed and reported by e-mail. Our kits have all you need to collect and return one sample to our veterinary lab including a glove, sample bag and a pre-paid envelope.
