I just use moxidectin if time I syringe 2 ml down the throat 12 days apart rather than add it to water
I have used the horse wormers before they work ok just a pain to mix up
2ml neat Neil down throat

I'm guessing it's difficult to get the Coxiworm tablets in the UK?

So here’s a question for you guys. Just had a whole loft test done (I.e throat swabs, droppings samples, floor and perch swabs) and we’ve got zero worms or eggs. Do I treat for something they haven’t got as a precaution, or do I just test regularly and treat as / when / if they appear?

With dogs I treat regularly because they’re born with them and pick them up from everywhere, but does that apply to pigeons?

Just asking out of ignorance - would that depend on whether or not you have them pecking around the yard/garden....
