What is WormBoss?

Worms cost Australian sheep producers more than any other disease. Drench resistant worms are increasingly prevalent and becoming harder to manage. For most sheep producers, sustainable management and control of sheep worms is essential for their future prosperity.

WormBoss was developed by the Australian Sheep Industry Cooperative Research Centre (Sheep CRC) and Australian Wool Innovation AWI to help producers meet these challenges.

WormBoss represents the national knowledge on sheep worms and their management. It has been assembled by leading parasitologists, researchers, extension officers, consultants, drench manufacturers and drench resellers. These are the people who made WormBoss.

WormBoss recommends four general management practices:

Monitor worm populations using worm egg counts to detect infestations early.
Do regular drench resistance tests so you know which drenches are effective on your property.
Maximise the use of non-chemical management strategies.
If you are unsure of anything - seek professional advice.

As you use WormBoss, you will see how you can use these practices to reduce costs, improve sheep health and productivity and increase profitability.
