Test for Lungworm

[Sid]

Having had lungworm in cattle in past and had to treat, tried vaccination but that was an epic fail and still had to treat for symptoms.

1st year cattle aren't coughing or showing any symptoms yet but can a dung or blood be sampled to tested to see if its present and at a level that need possible treatment?
Cattle are in for tb test next week so ideal time to deal with it.

You can blood test for it. Dung test waste of time. We did dung and blood from same cows as vet wasn’t sure which one would be best, bloods come back as had it dung showed nothing.
