Westgate Laboratories Pinworm Test Kit - Westgate Labs

The test uses a sellotape impression method to collect pinworm eggs from the horse's anal region. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.

This test is suitable for all equines, including horses, ponies, donkeys, mules, and other grazing animals.

The turnaround time for results depends on the laboratory's processing schedule. Typically, results are available within a few days to a couple of weeks after the lab receives the sample.

If the test is positive, consult with your veterinarian to discuss treatment options for pinworms.

Failure to follow the instructions precisely may result in inaccurate test results. Carefully review and adhere to all steps.

Store the test kit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of the reach of children and animals.

The shelf life is typically indicated on the kit packaging. Check the expiration date before use.

Ensure the horse is calm and the area is accessible. Try again, following the instructions carefully.

Refer to the detailed instructions included in the kit. Contact Westgate Labs customer support if further clarification is needed.
