The secret to a successful hibernation and general health for yourtortoise is Absolute Tortoise Wormer+.Why stress your tortoise taking them away to get them wormed when you can do it easily at home with Absolute Tortoise Wormer+. Designed to help keep your valued tortoise in tip-top condition.For the first time ever, your pet tortoise can be wormed at home without taking them away to worm them. This is less stressful for the animal, easier, and less expensive than any other way of treating in the past.Absolute Tortoise Wormer+ is a flubendazole-based medication for use against intestinal helminthic worms and external ticks, to keep your tortoise in top condition and health. Worms are a fact of life for tortoises, which in the past has been responsible for many failed hibernations. Every tortoise can carry its own complement of parasitic worms. When in good condition and health, these worms are not a problem., but as soon as the tortoise is stressed or hibernating, its natural immunity is compromised and internal parasites can take hold.This product will control tapeworms and other helminths, and help to ensure a successful hibernation. It is advisable to use this product again when any tortoise is waking from hibernation to help them recover and pick up strength quickly after a long sleep.Tropical tortoises need only be wormed 2-4 times a year, whereas, with hibernating species, it is advisable to worm before hibernation and again upon waking from a long hibernation period for safe recovery. For maximum protection, use every three months, the same as you would treat a cat or dog.
