I just joined and this is my first post so I apologize for any ignorance in advance!
Im wondering if anyone has any experience with gapeworm and also treating soil with agricultural lime? I have been going absolutely crazy trying to treat my flocks of gapeworm. Every single time I seam to have a grip on it no sooner do the symptoms re-emerge and many sleepless nights to follow. This has been going on for months now.
I understand the need to beat the hatching cycles plus the tolerance the parasites build when using the same treatments. I have tried and done absolutely everything I can find and the only thing I haven't tried yet is treating the yard with agricultural lime. I'm curious if anyone here has had any experience with this and if it's helped lower the eggs in the soil?
I have since had 2 tons delivered and starting spreading it over their future rotation. I'm doing it by hand which is very daunting and I'm hoping for good stories to know my efforts aren't in vain lol
