Information
Supporting parasite management in dairy cattle
Internal parasites are a common challenge for dairy cattle and can affect growth, condition, feed conversion and overall performance. Effective parasite management involves a combination of nutrition, pasture management, monitoring and strategic parasite control.
Farm WRM is traditionally used as part of a broader herd health programme designed to support cattle during periods of increased parasite pressure.
When might Farm WRM be considered?
Farm WRM is traditionally used where dairy cattle may be experiencing signs associated with:
- Internal parasite challenges
- Worm exposure
- High parasite pressure
- Poor thrift
- Reduced condition
- Seasonal parasite burdens
- Young stock worm management
- Pasture-related parasite exposure
- Herd parasite control programmes
- General wellbeing during parasite challenge
Understanding parasite pressure on dairy farms
Parasitic worms are a natural part of many grazing systems. Environmental conditions, stocking rates, pasture contamination and animal age can all influence parasite exposure.
Young growing cattle are often more susceptible to parasite burdens, although adult cattle can also be affected during periods of increased challenge.
Farm WRM is traditionally used as part of an integrated approach to herd wellbeing and parasite management.
Supporting young stock and replacement animals
Young stock often face greater parasite challenges while their natural immunity develops.
Farmers commonly focus on:
- Good nutrition
- Appropriate pasture management
- Regular monitoring
- Maintaining growth rates
- Reducing unnecessary stress
- Supporting overall health and resilience
Farm WRM may be incorporated alongside these management practices as part of a comprehensive young stock programme.
Supporting condition and performance
Maintaining good condition is important for productivity, fertility and overall animal wellbeing.
Farm WRM is traditionally used to support:
- General wellbeing
- Healthy growth
- Feed utilisation
- Animal condition
- Performance during periods of parasite challenge
Integrated parasite management
Successful parasite control often relies on a combination of management strategies.
These may include:
- Grazing management
- Pasture rotation
- Monitoring parasite burdens
- Strategic worm control programmes
- Nutrition management
- Young stock monitoring
Farm WRM is commonly incorporated into broader farm parasite management systems.
Seasonal parasite support
Parasite challenges can fluctuate throughout the year depending on weather conditions, pasture growth and grazing pressure.
Many dairy farmers choose Farm WRM during periods traditionally associated with increased parasite activity and exposure.

How to use
All Agripathics remedies are provided in liquid form, as this has proven to be the most practical and effective method of administration across species.
Individual Use:
For optimal absorption, remedies are best applied to a mucus membrane. In dairy cows, this typically means the nose or vulva. During milking, the vulva offers a convenient access point. A suggested approach is to spray 3–4 times per dose, ideally at three intervals: when the cow enters the shed, when cups are put on, and again at cup removal. This spacing allows for a minimum five-minute interval between applications, supporting consistent uptake and response.
For other farm animals, placing the remedy directly into the mouth or via food or water is generally the most effective method.
Group Use:
For herd-wide support, remedies can be added to the water trough. Adding 1–2 capfuls ensures that each animal receives a dose with every drink, allowing for repeated exposure throughout the day.

Base Composition
Formulated in a liquid base of human‑grade undenatured ethanol (10%) and spring water.
About Our Ethanol Base
Our remedies are preserved using human‑grade undenatured ethanol, selected for its purity and suitability across species. The gentle 10% concentration supports product stability while remaining appropriate for routine use with companion animals, birds, horses, and livestock.
Ethanol and Animal Administration
Each dose contains only a minimal amount of ethanol. Most animals tolerate this well, and remedies may be administered orally, added to feed or water, or applied topically depending on species and context.
For animals with known sensitivity - or when cautious administration is preferred - the following approaches may be used:
-
Dispense drops into feed and allow to stand for 20 minutes before offering
-
Dilute in a small volume of warm water and allow to stand for 20 minutes prior to administration
These methods allow partial ethanol evaporation while preserving the integrity of the active ingredients.
Ingredient Philosophy
We select ingredients with a focus on purity, safety, and functional integrity. Our undenatured ethanol base reflects this commitment - clean, balanced, and suitable for diverse species, from household companions to performance and production animals.
FAQ's
Is ethanol safe for animals? Yes. Our remedies use a very small amount of human‑grade undenatured ethanol (10%), which is widely accepted as safe for routine use across species.
Why is ethanol used in the remedies? Ethanol acts as a gentle preservative, helping maintain stability and potency over time. It also supports the integrity of homeopathic preparations.
Can sensitive animals still take the remedy? Absolutely. For animals with known sensitivity, drops can be added to feed or diluted in warm water and allowed to stand for 20 minutes. This allows partial evaporation while keeping the remedy effective.
Will my animal taste the ethanol? Most animals show no reaction at all. When added to food or water, the taste is minimal to undetectable.
