It is important to deworm during pregnancy because the horse's immune system isn't going to be working as effectively and the immune system normally helps control parasite loads. It's also important to deworm mares during pregnancy because they can pass certain parasites on to their foals through milk and they will shed parasite eggs into the environment which can lead to heavy parasite infections in the foals who are much more susceptible to parasites than an adult horse.
