WHERE DO WORMS COME FROM?
Most gastrointestinal (GI) worms will squirm their way in when your pet accidentally eats worm eggs or larvae. "How would my pet even eat worm eggs?", we hear you ask! Well, it's pretty gross, but it's usually because they’ve ingested the faeces of another animal which had worms living in its gut. Many GI worm eggs aren't infective straight away after being passed in poo. It can take a little bit of time - and that's why it's SO IMPORTANT to clear up your cat and dog poo. It's vital to help reduce the level of infection - and cut those pesky parasites off before they have the chance to infect new pets (or people - yep, we’re not safe from them either).We’re sure this goes without saying, but always wash your hands after clearing up your pet's poo…
WHAT ARE THE MAIN TYPES OF WORM THAT CAN AFFECT CATS AND DOGS AND HOW?
Itch Wormer for Dogs kills all types of intestinal worms commonly found in the UK: roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms, whipworms.
The most common worms in dogs are roundworms and tapeworms. Roundworms are the most common type of parasitic worm found in dogs in the UK. These worms are long and white in appearance and steal nutrients from their host (your pooch - gulp). While the initial infection starts in their GI tract, roundworms can work their way into your dog’s other tissues and organs.Tapeworms in dogs are long and flat in appearance. These parasites live in the small intestine and latch onto the intestinal wall, absorbing nutrients as your dog is digesting their food. When these worms are excreted, the body of the worm can break into segments that resemble grains of rice.

HOW TO TELL IF YOUR PET HAS WORMS
Symptoms of worm infestation in your dogs and cats can include abdominal discomfort, diarrhoea, weight loss, dull or lifeless fur, and sometimes even anaemia. In puppies and kittens, large numbers of worms can even cause blockages on their insides, which sadly can be fatal. There are often no early signs of worms in dogs or cats whatsoever. They could be setting up camp in your besties guts and you wouldn't have a clue until it was possibly too late - scary stuff, right? Worms can be a threat to people as well as pets - especially young children or those with a weakened immune system. One worm in particular you don't want a child crossing paths with is Toxocara - if infected, this can cause serious health conditions such as blindness and epilepsy.Stop the wrigglers taking hold with a regular dose of dewormer!

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I DEWORM MY PET?
The best way to keep yourself, your family and your pet safe is to give your dogs and cats a regular dose of Itch Wormer! Monthly wormer treatment is recommended for pets who love the outdoors or eat raw food because they're much more likely to get worms. Children under 4 and the immunosuppressed are in danger from a dog or cat with worms, so monthly treatment is also recommended here. All other pets will be recommended a quarterly wormer treatment programme.
HOW CAN I GET MY PET TO TAKE THEIR WORMING TABLET?
Itch Wormer comes in tablet form and can be given whole or crushed, with or without food. As pet parents ourselves, we know the tricky realities of getting anywhere near your pet with that round tablet! To make life easier, for dogs, we suggest a wrapping of cheese or ham and for cats, crush with the back of a spoon and sprinkle over their favourite dinner. This can help the medicine go down.
