Deworming for Sheep & Alpacas
Internal parasites (worms) are one of the biggest health issues for sheep and alpacas in Western Australia. Without regular control, animals can lose weight, develop scours, and show poor fibre growth.
Benefits of Regular Deworming
Improves body condition and fibre quality
Boosts feed conversion and growth
Keeps breeding females strong through lambing or cria season
✔️ Reduces worm eggs on pasture
✔️ Prevents costly drench resistance
We tailor strategic worming programs for both sheep and alpacas based on local parasite patterns, stocking density, and seasonal conditions.
Lice & External Parasite Treatment
Lice infestations affect both sheep and alpacas — leading to irritation, rubbing, fleece damage, and reduced wool or fibre value.
The most effective time for lice treatment is within 24 hours after shearing, while fleece is short.
Why Treat for Lice
Prevent fleece breakage and matting
Improve animal comfort and appearance
Increase fleece or fibre value
Stop re-infestation across mobs or herds
We use proven treatment options for both sheep and alpacas, ensuring effective coverage and minimal stress.
