Fort Benning Hunt Club Dewormer Rotation Schedule
All horse stabled at FBHC Stables will be required to follow a wormer rotation schedule. Any horse(s) not dewormed according to schedule will be quarantined to their assigned paddock until stable officer has received proof of worming and for 7 days after deworming. Any horse(s) feed a daily dewormer, will be required to deworm once in the fall and once in the spring using a 1.87% equine ivermectin paste dewormer to control bot infestation because daily dewormer is not effective against bots. Members will also need to provide receipt for proof of purchase (of daily wormer) to ensure all horse are being wormed Paste Dewormer Rotation Schedule

**Please note that Moxidectin is NOT recommended for foals or weak horses since an overdose can be very dangerous to them. The above horse worming schedule will suit most standard horse needs very well, but if your horse is one that grazes frequently you may want to modify it a bit to include a five-day double-dose schedule of a Fenbendazole-based wormer in September and January. This purges your horse's system of encysted larvae that are picked up easily during regular grazing. Since encysted larvae are very difficult to nail without the use of Moxidectin, the five-day regimen is necessary; you won't be able to purge a horse's system of this parasite with just one or two doses. Note: Under no circumstance should you provide a double dose of
Moxidectin. Although effective against larvae and bots with just one
dose, multiple doses can be a danger to your horse.
**You must be careful to apply the recommended dose of horse wormer with each session, because parasites possess the ability to build a resistance towards agents designed to kill them when the agents are not applied in doses strong enough to kill the parasites outright. This is why it is also important to rotate the various types of horse wormers – not only does it increase the spectrum of targeted parasites, it makes it difficult for parasites to build up any sort of resistance or immunity.
