I haven't used DE, but I believe there had been studies
proving that it's not too effective. I am in a public boarding place in
pasture, so I feel that the use of ivermectin is very important because of the
lack of pristine manure control and the comings and goings of horse population
in the pasture means that there's continual chance of worm infestation.
With a closed herd, I'm sure that deworming can be decreased
significantly with proper management.
