Ask the Vet - Sweet itch vs neck threadworms

In this excerpt from the May 2019 episode of Ask the Vet (   • Ask the Vet - Sweet itch, hoof supple...  ) which was the first Ask the Vet shot on location, Dr. Gray and SmartPaker Dan go over how to know when sweet itch is actually sweet itch and not an infestation of neck threadworms. She also talks about why its really important to consult your veterinarian and get a diagnosis, as well as one really cool way to test if your horse does have neck threadworms.
