How To Make a Natural Herbal DeWormer

If you have livestock, you likely deworm them every spring and summer. Here’s a recipe for a homemade herbal dewormer – I would think it would be cheaper than store bought.

You should be able to find most or all of the ingredients at your grocery store or your natural health store.

 Mix in equal parts:

 fennel seed

dehydrated garlic

oregano

thyme

sage

pumpkin seed

hyssop

red clover

For Goats:

 Mix 1 tablespoon of the herb blend with one tablespoon of diatomaceous earth and then mix this into the daily ration of grain.

For Chickens:

 For 30 birds, add one cup of de-wormer to their daily grain ration.

In General:

 Add the dewormer to the feed rations for the first week of every month during Spring and Summer.

    Hi Annie! Interesting recipe – do you happen to know if it’s safe for dogs?

      Hi Aleta! I am not sure, but my guess would be that if it is OK healthwise for chickens and horses, etc., it should be OK for dogs.
