if u deworm ur horse with expired dewormer could it hurt them? or would it even work?
i havn't used it yet but i bought it from a lady and it expired 2 years ago. what should i do?
Answers:
throw it away!! don't let ur horse touch that! not only will it not kill any worms that could be in there but it could also make worms. thats part of the way they get worms in the first place eating something that is bad for them. don't force him to eat something that will not help him.
return it.
it won`t work.
toss it out and buy good dewormer.
dewormer has a shelf life and after it has expired it is not as afective, if it has gone that long it will no longer do any good.
rember to deworm your horse every 3 months, I use the first of the year, tax day, 4th of july and labor day to rember worming days.
jeffers has good wormers and are not expensive.
No no no no! throw it away, return it, get rid of it. Not only could it seriously harm your horse, but it won't deworm your horse. It would be just like giving him a nasty tasting paste for no reason. Go to your local tack/ feed store and get a new tube that hasn't expired.
Hello it may be wise not to use the wormer as the chemicals designed to do the job may be inactive and the chemical carrier may have a nasty reaction on your horse.
I would return the wormer to the seller and purchase another wormer in date for your peice of mind and your horses health.
Best wishes to you .
Well what do you think your horse would say?
Don't use it, That's why theres an expiration date on it. I would take it back and get a refund. Use the money to buy fresh wormer.
Don't use it.. replace it
it upsets me that animal owners actually have to ASK these questions - return it and if you dont get an exchange, buy a new one. Worming is one of the most important things you can do for your horse and certainly you shouldnt scrimp on a good worm dose to save money - buy a new one and worm your horse regularly.
get fresh wormer the things that are in the wormer can dissapate after a certain period of time and they would no longer be active dont use anything more than a few days past the expired date.and always keep it out of the sun in a cool dry place
