Eraquell Pellets palative alternative to paste and liquid wormers for horses
Recommended For:

A mectin-based wormer for the treatment of all common worms and bots.
Each sachet of Eraquell treats a horse up to 700 kg
Safe to use on all adult horses including pregnant mares and breeding stallions.
Eraquell Pellets are not suitable for use on foals due to risk of incorrect dosing and subsequent adverse outcomes
What Is Eraquell Pellets:
Cereal-based pellets that look and smell like pony cubes
A safe and effective wormer that controls internal equine parasites and all three species of bots
An alternative to traditional paste and liquid wormers
Why Choose Eraquell:
Palatable pellet in a small dose size:
The bite-sized pellets are readily accepted by most horses directly from the feed bucket.
For very fussy eaters, mixing the Eraquell Pellets with a handful of the horse’s usual pre-mixed feed will ensure the entire dose is consumed.
Broad Spectrum wormer:
The ivermectin in Eraquell provides a broad-spectrum anti-parasiticide for control of all equine worms (except tapeworm) including bots, lungworms, intestinal threadworms and skin parasites (summer sores and neck threadworms).
To protect against worm related disease:
In cases where horse owners may struggle to give their horses a paste, Eraquell provides an alternative solution to a paste based mectin wormer in autumn.
Note there still will be a need to give a non-mectin wormer like Strategy-T in Spring time.
Use of faecal egg testing will help determine worming requirements for the rest of the year.
Track record of safety:
Extensive trials have proven the safety and efficacy of Eraquell Pellets.
Due to difficulties in accurately measuring a dose it is not recommended to administer Eraquell Pellets to foals.
Treats a 700kg horse in one dose:
Each 35g sachet of Eraquell Pellets will treat a 700kg animal meaning most horses can be easily treated with a single sachet.

Tips for Best Results
- Feed the measured dose in a clean bucket with the bridle removed so nothing is spilt; check the horse has eaten every pellet.
- Eraquell does not control tapeworm — use a praziquantel-containing product where tapeworm control is needed, and rotate with a non-mectin wormer (e.g. in spring) as part of a faecal-egg-count-guided program.
- Do not treat more often than the label program advises; underdosing and over-frequent mectin use drive resistance.
Always read the label and follow directions for use. The registered label is the legal document governing use of this product.
