I used to give the Ivomec in a shot but a lot of breeders say it works better if given orally. I honestly can't tell a difference but it's a heck of a lot easier to give it orally!

I've had to worm does close to delivery and I always use SafeGuard. I trust it not to upset them. Even when you worm 4 wks before delivery, I give mine a dose of Ivomec the day they deliver. Stress can cause the dormant worms to become active...and what's more stressful than labor and delivery?! Hope that helps!
