Worms and garlic

[Mouse12]

Hey guys, just a question, I know garlic can help with protecting against worms for the chicken but can it help prevent them from incubating and living in the poo if I was to make a garlic spray and spray their bedding and coop?

Garlic actually does not prevent worms..Its Hype and false.
Clean coops and runs...Management prevents worms...Healthy Birds do not suffer from worm overl

Keeping you coop and run clean is the best.

I am with the second poster. The only thing that garlic prevents is girl friends.

Worms and their eggs are in things like snails, slugs, crickets, grasshoppers, and all other types of invertebrates that live, eat, and breed in close contact with the soil. Even darkling beetles and their larva stage, mealworms can and do transmit worms and other pathogens to chickens.

Garlic is wonderful; delicious, and useless as a vermifuge, for anyone. Eat it and enjoy, and don't bother giving it to chickens!
