Quarantine drenching - don't import resistant sheep worms

primefact cover
Primefact Number: 477    Edition: First edition    Released/reviewed: 01 Feb 2007

Drench resistance in sheep worms is a major challenge for sheep producers in Australia and overseas.

There are two ways of getting drench-resistant worms onto your farm:

  • breed your own, or
  • import someone else’s resistant worms.

This Primefact briefly addresses the second way.
