Abstract
Increasing reports of anthelmintic resistance of gut and lungworm are occurring, probably because of over-treatment with the same products, often unnecessarily. A more sustainable approach to parasite control – known as integrated parasite management – puts diagnostic testing and prevention before treating, centre stage. This reduces farmers' reliance on products, saving them for when they might be really needed.
