Oh, that’s the part we have no evidence of. Certainly loved ‘owning’ the libs but we don’t know if he loved being free of worms. For all we know, he’ll living his best wormy life quite soon. ---

> [@Steve\_MB](#): > > Well, free of gut worms, anyway. Brain worms, I’m not so sure… Actually, as I said in another thread, having owned horses I’ve used Ivermectin. It’s a systemic poison and will kill off not only gut parasites, but blood-borne ones as well. If you suspect your horse has the latter you have to be cautious and probably want to call in a vet. Given willy-nilly the blood parasites die off, are cast loose in the blood stream, and can trigger thrombosis. Of course, when you’ve been carried off by Covid, this no longer a concern. ---
