Re:Home remedies for pets? - 2008/06/25 00:23 Hello there here are a few thing that I know of that may work for parasitic infestations
Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium): A traditional remedy for all intestinal parasites.
Walnut (Juglans cinerea): Good liver herb used traditionally for parasitic infestation.
Garlic Good cleanser with a history of use in parasitic infestations. Chop up a small fresh clove and add to the food . Some cats love it some hate it. This is one that I used myself with a cat I had from a kitten and added it to his food every other day. He never had worms and ate quite happily probably because I'd given it to him from such an early age.
A pinch of cayenne pepper in food can be useful if you can get your pet to eat it!.
Cider vinegar, a teaspoon per pint of drinking water.
One or two grated carrots added to food can be useful. Carrots are known to be an anthelmintic (a substance that causes the elimination of intestinal parasites).
Hope this is of some help. If you try any of them I would love to hear how you get on
