Myth 1: My pets do not have parasites; they have always been kept at home. The house is clean and hygienic. How can there be parasites?
Parasites can also stick to the soles of your shoes and be brought into the room, and pets can get infected if they touch your shoes. So it’s not necessarily safe at home.
Misunderstanding 2: I have never done deworming before, but suddenly my pets pulled out the worms, and I realized the need for deworming.
The parasite has already caused damage to the pet’s body at this time, and the owner is also exposed to a high infection environment, which is very dangerous.
Myth 3: Dewormers can drive away all insects.
Many anthelmintics are broad-spectrum, but no single anthelmintic can repel all parasites.
Myth 4: I have dewormed before, so I don’t need to deworm again.
Deworming medicine has a cycle; when it reaches a specific time limit, it will become invalid, so deworming should be done regularly.
Myth 5: Deworming drugs are very toxic, so don’t deworm dogs and cats frequently.
Some anthelmintic ingredients are indeed pesticide ingredients, which have a specific low toxicity. Still, not all anthelmintic drugs are like this, so it is necessary to choose relatively safer pharmaceutical ingredients for the regular maintenance of pets—internal and external deworming.
Myth 6: My baby has been vaccinated; does he still need deworming?
Vaccination does not mean deworming. Vaccines mainly prevent and control infectious diseases between cats and dogs but cannot prevent parasites. To protect the furry child at home in all aspects, you must grasp it with both hands.
Myth 7: After taking deworming medicine, should the eggs be released?
Many parasites in the body are invisible to the naked eye but can only be seen under a microscope.
Myth 8: Drops and sprays may endanger human health.
The anthelmintic only works on invertebrate animals. At the same time, it does not rely on odor diffusion to expel parasites, but the drug ingredients spread in the dog’s sebaceous glands, and the parasites on the dog are touching the liquid. After that, it will be overexcited and die to achieve the effect of deworming.
