How do you stop horse parasites?
Parasites in horses are controlled through several different strategies: pasture management, manure management and chemical control. Pasture management techniques that help reduce parasite infection rates are not overstocking pastures, not mowing or harrowing pastures containing manure while horses are on pastures and rotating horses to different pasture every 6 months to allow the parasite load on each pasture to drop as environmental conditions kill some of the parasite eggs and larva. Manure management includes picking up feces from pastures, paddocks and stalls at least every other day. Chemical control involves identifying the parasites present through fecal egg counts and selecting an appropriate drug to administer to kill the parasites. Chemical control may be needed quite often, as in very young horses, or as infrequently as twice a year in adult horses. Horse owners should involve their veterinarians in designing and appropriate chemical parasite control strategy for each horse.

To maintain digestive health a horse should be?
A horse should be able to have access to good pasture and hay ad libitum. On richer pasture, a horse should have access to hay all the time to aid in ease of digestion because grass that is growing quickly tends to have the similar levels of protein and carbohydrates as a horse on a "hot" diet or grain diet would have. Roughage in the form of hay eases digestion and prevents founder for horses that are on rich pasture. Pastures that are of lower quality or that do not have such high-quality forage is more safer for a horse to be on 24/7. Clipped pastures are also good for horses to be on; the clippings act as a source of hay when they are grazing on pasture. However, do not let them eat fresh clippings or give them clippings that have been raked into piles as this can cause problems such as colic
