Effective wormer for N. GA.

I'm pricing things I'll need for goats. And my feed store has SafeGaurd. But Fiasco farm's says that there is a very high tolorance for this wormer. Can I get y'all's sugestions for effictive wormers. I don't mind ordering on line.

Thank you all so much,

Samantha

Cydectin will probally work. You really need to talk to folks in your area. Ivermectin still works for me but does not for many people.

I live in east Tn. near the N. Ga. line. Safeguard does not work at all for me anymore. I use Cydectin now and have had great results with it. Ivomac still works well for me also.

WARNING: Do not administer to cattle within 48 hours of slaughter for food. Do not administer to sheep within 72 hours of slaughter for food. To prevent residues in milk, do not administer to dairy animals of breeding age.

this is the warning on the lable of the "Prohibit™ Soluble Drench Powder"

I want dary goats for milk for my family. I find this a little scary. Thank you so much though. I do plan on some meat goats when I finnaly get to TN.
