[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1641093, member: 12607"] Seeing as how ivermectin was discovered as a product of a soil microorganism, it's unlikely that it kills all soil microflora.(It doesn't) 45 days is not sufficient time for all infectious nematode larvae on pasture to die off. Might take well over a year for some species in some climates. Stop deworming the entire herd. All that does is select for populations of resistant worms, more quickly. Mature cows don't need deworming. Like NEVER; unless you're in a liver fluke area. Diatomaceous Earth has never killed a worm in an animal. EVER. [/QUOTE]
