I've nothing against chem.wormers, but is there something easier that would work for goats and sheep? I read garlic and cayenne pepper worked; anyone use it? Thanks!

We've used Hoeggers herbal wormer successfully for years on our goats, although I have no idea what you'd use for sheep. We don't have a huge parasite problem here in the high desert though.

Don't want to tempt fate, but not really a problem here.

IO have heard that green papaya works. Mine always get the chopped up skins off ripe papaya, maybe that works :idunno

I know garlic is great for keeping ticks away from people, dogs & cats... should work the same for goats. I have read also, that it is a natural dewormer... pine & spruce are also great natural dewormers.
