The growing reality of drug-resistance in parasites has made managing them a serious concern for horse professionals. Administering a rotational deworming schedule is no longer an adequate way to control parasites and could end up costing you more in the long run.
Join EquestrianProfessional.com May 26, 2014, for the free webinar: “What Horse Professionals Need to Know About Drug Resistant Parasite Control.” During this webinar, Dr. Martin Nielsen will unveil his findings and share solutions to help you answer your customers’ questions and provide optimal parasite management for the horses in your care.
During the webinar, Nielsen will cover:
• The current challenges of parasite control
• Effective chemical measures and sustainable control strategies
• Common parasite control misconceptions
• Ways to preserve the value of the deworming drugs we have, because no new ones are currently in development
This is a rare opportunity to learn directly from one of the top equine parasite researchers in the world from the comfort of your own home. “Managing Parasites in the Face of Drug Resistance” is a free live webinar available to all horse professionals and can be attended via your computer or phone.
