Yes my husband wanted me to ask what most fo you cattle raisers used to kill worms for your cows. He uses something purpel that he squirts on there backs and wonders what is better. Thanks.

We have also used the food grade DE for cattle. It may have gotten some of the worms but not all of them.
I know people that has used it for hogs and seemed to work better with them than with cattle.
