Natural dewormers

Why Deworming Horses is Essential ?

Horses and ponies are exposed to a variety of parasites, including tapeworms, roundworms, pinworms, ascarids, and strongyles. These parasites can inhabit the intestines, lungs, or other organs, causing digestive issues, weight loss, colic, and potentially more serious health problems.

A horse infested with parasites often shows reduced physical performance, low energy, and general weakness. Without a regular natural deworming routine, parasites can multiply, increasing the parasite load and worsening the situation. Some parasitic infections can even be fatal, particularly in older animals with weaker immune systems.

Regular deworming keeps horses healthy, whether for work, competitions, leisure riding, breeding, or retired horses.

Benefits of Plant-Based Natural Dewormers ?

Horses live closely with nature and are naturally exposed to internal parasites that can disrupt digestion and weaken immunity.

Arbalou shop offers natural plant-based supplements that gently support the horse’s body while helping to combat parasitic infestations. Key ingredients include:

• Garlic: Well-known for its antiparasitic properties, garlic helps expel intestinal parasites while boosting the immune system. Its sulfur compounds act as a natural repellent, limiting new infestations.
• Pumpkin Seeds: Rich in cucurbitacin, a potent antiparasitic agent effective against roundworms. Cucurbitacin paralyzes parasites, facilitating safe elimination without harming the intestinal lining.
• Thyme: Contains essential oils with antiseptic properties that support digestion and help reduce intestinal inflammation while fighting parasites.
• Tansy: A strong natural antiparasitic plant, known to combat a wide range of intestinal parasites and stimulate immunity.

How to Detect Parasites in Horses ?

Common signs of parasitic infestations include:

• Weight loss and a dull coat
• Worms visible in droppings
• Digestive issues: diarrhea, constipation, repeated colic
• Slow growth in young horses
• Respiratory symptoms: persistent cough or nasal discharge
• General weakness and fatigue

Regular observation and testing (fecal analysis over 4 weeks and blood work if needed) are essential to detect and manage infestations early.

Frequency of Natural Deworming ?

A natural deworming schedule should be personalized based on environment, exposure, and test results. For example:

• High-risk environments (shared pastures) require more frequent treatments.
• Arbalou herbal Dewormer: a 12-day course, four times per year, effectively controls parasites without overloading the horse’s systemH
• Arbalou Garlic: daily supplement that reinforces natural defenses and supports digestive health.

Preventive Measures Against Horse Parasites

• Monitor your horse for signs of parasitism (weight loss, dull coat, itching).
• Provide natural plant-based supplements to support digestion and immunity.
• Keep stables clean and disinfected to prevent parasite buildup.
• Regularly remove manure from pastures.
• Avoid overgrazing to reduce contamination risks.
• Quarantine new horses before introducing them to the herd.

Arbalou’s natural supplements help maintain intestinal health, gently eliminate parasites, and preserve the digestive flora, unlike chemical dewormers that only kill parasites.
