Can be used more frequently if recommended by your vet
Many broad-spectrum paraciticides cannot be used more than once every 4 weeks, which can leave pets and their owners unprotected from worms between treatments. Milpro® can be used more often*, if recommended by your vet.
Safe to use with your topical flea treatment
Milpro® is safe to combine with Selamectin and Fluralaner-based topical flea treatments.
Worming puppies and kittens
This is important as some parasites can pass from mother to kittens or pups during pregnancy or through lactation.
Treatment helps prevent parasites from infecting pet owners during the regular handling of young animals.

Worms can be found in unexpected places and carried into your house on shoes and pets.
Rodents, insects and birds can carry worms
Animals that hunt can ingest worms from their prey.
Fleas can carry worms

Hookworm larvae can enter through bare feet and other exposed skin.
Worms can cause disease in humans
Some Roundworm larvae can migrate and cause eye damage, or even blindness.
Some worms, like Roundworms, can be passed from animals to humans.
This transmission is called “zoonosis.” Individuals who share an environment with an infected animal may be at risk of getting infected.

TIPS TO AVOID INFECTION
- Clean your fruits and vegetables thoroughly before eating
- Wash your hands after working in the yard or playing with your pet
- Clear your yard of animal faeces
- DEWORM YOUR PET REGULARLY!
Every pet’s level of risk is unique. That’s why the European Scientific Counsel Companion Animal Parasites (ESCCAP) promotes following a custom parasite management plan, which should be recommended by your vet.
Adult cats and dogs should be dewormed every 3 months as a rule of thumb. However, your pet’s lifestyle determines the risk of picking up parastites, and therefore how often they should be treated. Always read the package leaflet before use and discuss any changes to the prescribed frequency with your vet.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I DEWORM MY CAT?
Hunting cats
Adult cats who hunt should be treated with a broad-spectrum wormer every month. Discuss treatment with your vet.
Adult cats
Most adult cats in New Zealand should be treated with a broadspectrum wormer, such as MILPRO®, four times per year (every three months).
Pregnant cats
Breeding and pregnant queens should be treated at mating, and 10 days before kittening.
Always deworm nursing queens together with the kittens.
Kittens
Deworm at 6, 8 and 12 weeks of age, then 3-monthly.
Do not use MILPRO® in kittens of less than 6 weeks of age and/or weighing less than 0.5kg.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I DEWORM MY DOG?
