Strongylus vulgaris, or large strongyles, is the most dangerous of the equine endoparasites. Its larvae can cause lethal intestinal infarctions when they move through the horse’s blood vessels. Because of its pathogenicity, deworming is recommended when infection is confirmed, regardless of quantity (compare with small strongyles where a small number of worms is tolerated at an individual level). Single deworming of the infected horse may not, however, be enough to eliminate infection entirely. The aim of this study was to explore correlations between occurrences of S. vulgaris and egg per gram faeces, age, number of horses on the farm, and number of months between deworming and faecal sample, respectively. The aim was also to observe 16 S....
