Joining Anthony for today's episode of VETchat is Ian Wright, Veterinary Surgeon and Parasitologist at the Mount Veterinary Practice, Fleetwood.
In this episode, Anthony and Ian discuss a whole lot of parasitology! They talk about Animal Health Certificates; what they are, what is needed for them, and their benefits and drawbacks. Anthony asks Ian for his opinion on the government removing the compulsory treatment of ticks when animals travel and the dangers of bringing parasites over from other countries.
Ian shares information on parasites including Rhipicephalus, Leishmania, Toxocara, and the risk that Phortica Variegata may bring to the UK. They discuss whether we are still over-treating animals and whether Ian thinks we should be doing more surveillance such as flea comings and faecal egg counts.
