There are numerous treatments / products which will target different types of worms.

From what I've read "jungle internal parasite guard" is a Parzi based med which will only target some worms, flukes etc.

PP baths (See PP sticky) seems to be the best course of action to take care of flukes & some worms. Then use a product called Big L to take care of the other worms.

Hope this help & I hope I got all my info right :D - I'm not pretending to be an expert... So much more to learn.

Only way for me to get big l is through the mail for me; any other choices?
