Our Community

Our pets are a much loved part of our life and family, so it is natural that we would want to keep them in optimum health.

The Parasitic worm can pose a serious health risk not just to your pets, but to people too.

Your pet can pick up worms in your garden or your local park. Worms are parasites that can live inside your pet, often without you knowing. Different worms pose different risks, but if left untreated, some can seriously endanger or even result in the death of your pet.

Some worms can pass from your pets to people through grooming, stroking or the environment. Children, the elderly and those with reduced immune systems are most at risk. Whilst most human infections cause only minor symptoms, rare cases can lead to blindness and epilepsy.

We recommend worming your pets with a comprehensive wormer such as mibemax at least every 3 months but depending on your pets age and lifstyle you may need to worm them more often.

Sign up to our free worming reminder service at the Milbemax website.
