YES Swine and Humans share many parasites and diseases!
YOU CAN GET PARASITES AND DISEASES FROM YOUR PIG AND YOU CAN GET THEM FROM YOUR PIG TOO!There are a million reasons to deworm your pig properly. However the number one reason being that you want your pigs and family to remain healthy and safe from illness and parasites. I know there's hundreds and I am compiling a list however since someone tried to tell me I was wrong well you know me lol I had to do a quick search for links to this and poof in less than 9 minutes I found these. I will be compiling a full list over the next few months and will publish it to our website!
