Proactive Parasite Care for Your Avian

Wormcount.com screens provide a detailed insight into the internal parasitic health of your birds, including gastro-intestinal (gut) roundworms, tapeworms, gapeworm and coccidia. This enables targeted worming using the most appropriate treatment for the specific parasite burden. We can undertake screens on all species of birds; from domestic pets, to birds of prey, game birds and poultry.

All birds are capable of picking up parasite burdens, which can cause discomfort, weight loss, a reduction in egg laying (if applicable) and in severe cases can be fatal. Whether parasite control is an important commercial factor for your poultry farm, or whether you are concerned about a single pet or display bird, we are able to help. We offer single screens for individual birds of concern and we also offer flock/group sampling, whereby a representative pool sample is tested to indicate the group’s internal parasite presence.
