A lot of drugs will kill roundworms, actually.  And although ivermectin
will get some of them, it doesn't have a good kill rate, so it isn't the
drug of choice for younguns (since that's where you find most of the
roundworms.)  Fenbendazole actually does pretty well on roundworms, as
does old-fashioned piperazine.
