About this product
Horse Pinworm Test (Oxyuris equi)
Our Horse Pinworm Test is specifically designed to detect pinworms (Oxyuris equi), a common equine parasite that cannot be identified through a standard horse worm egg count. Unlike other intestinal worms, female pinworms lay their eggs around the horse's tail and anus rather than in the faeces, meaning a different testing method is required.
This simple equine pinworm test uses a specialised sample collection technique to identify pinworm eggs and confirm whether your horse has an active pinworm infestation. It is particularly useful for horses showing signs such as tail rubbing, itching around the dock, hair loss or irritation.
Your results include a clear interpretation of the findings together with practical treatment recommendations where required. Fast, accurate and laboratory-tested, our horse pinworm testing service helps you manage parasites effectively and improve your horse's comfort and wellbeing.
