Re: Nematodes!!!! Are they encapsulated nematodes?
If they aren't encapsulated you can use garlic in the food as a treatment, garlic 1-2g/100g food for 3 days and repeat after 2 weeks, this can be used for Camallanus worms as well.

Re: Nematodes!!!! Just went to my local pet barn and they didnt stock Big L but did stock a wormer that still had Levamisole Hydrochloride as the main ingredient but also had Praziquantel in it? Will this still be fine to use?
Thanks

Re: Nematodes!!!! Ok so I got the above mentioned wormer Science Products - Worm Rid. But I'm not sure on the exact dosage as the active constituents are different? The dosage rate for big L is 7ml/L but that is for 16g/L and worm rid is only 10mg/ml? Sorry not the best with working this out (I did try  ) Any help would be good. Thanks

Re: Nematodes!!!! 1 mL = 1g
10mg = 0.01g
Praziquantel or Panacur are also recommended for treating roundworm nematodes.
