For horses over 900 lbs. in weight, increase dosage proportionately according to the above table.
Dose each horse individually. Carefully determine the weight of the animal to be treated and determine the correct dosage. Mix WONDER WORMER™ thoroughly with the amount of grain the horse will consume in a single feeding. Horses must be individually confined during treatment so that consumption of medicated feed can be observed and accurately measured. Do not give the horse additional feed that day until the treated feed is fully consumed. Most horses will take the medicated feed readily and should be given plenty of good hay when all of the grain is consumed.
For finicky eaters mix WONDER WORMER™ into molasses and water (50/50) and add the mixture to the amount of grain the horse will consume in a single feeding. For the horse that refuses to eat medicated feed, consult a veterinarian.
Note: Horses are constantly subject to reinfestation, particularly through grazing in confined pastures. Therefore, periodic worming and good stable sanitation are essential. For the most effective control of internal parasites, treat horses with WONDER WORMER™ every eight to ten weeks.
