I am trying to locate the name of device and methods demonstrated at Gene Sollocks ranch tour in College Station recently. He was metering apple cider vinegar into livestock watering tanks for control of intestinal parasites in lieu of deworming. If anyone has this information or could put me in touch with Mr. Sollocks or Dr. Will Winters, DVM, please repond here and email me at steve_how@msn.com

Thanks,

Another approach is to build a healthy population of livestock. In that approach those that test positive for worms go to the abattoir along with their siblings and ancestors. Those that test negative get bred.

Too bad they weren't looking at natural DE as well. It works extremely well especially when used with seasalt, kelp and other/or humates.

Please provide more info on use of DE for internal parasites in beef cows. Rates, methods of treatment, etc.. Apparently, DE would be active against rumen parasites, but not harmful to the animal itself??
