For all the wormer questions going on: Ivermectin does not cause any
resistance problems. Ivermectin kills everything except tapes. Strongid
(tube) should be rotated in x2/year (for the tapeworms), to be timed
according to your local recommendations (check with vet?). Strongid (tube)
should be given in double dose (2 tubes) when it's done. Rotating other
wormers in is not necessary. Some people do it to save money. I'd rather
keep it simple and know the job is getting done. That's the extent of my
knowledge and experience.
