    Very high worm burdens in lambs at the moment on some farms and white wormers are useless on some farms too so you can take the risk that your lambs are off one of the few farms that have no breakdown in white wormers. that's the situation out there at the moment,
    The only proper procedure out at the moment is test for worms, dose if necessary, test again to ensure it worked , any thing else is only guess work
