I'm scared to give medicine

[Jay ray]

Just back from vet w dewormer should I put it in the hornworm w syringe I don't think he will open his mouth for me?

I have injected hornworms and silkworms with baytril and then fed the worm. I don't know if you can do that with dewormer, but I am assuming so. Hopefully someone else can answer that question for you!! If you can, that is the way to go to get meds in them.

Just call your vet back and ask. May be your fastest answer for sure.

What I do when i'm giving my guy the d3 I got from the vet(Yes, been doing it about 2 weeks) is i'm using a syringe and inject into the 2 crickets then feeding him with it, so I guess you should be fine doing the same thing into worms or w/e you want to use. But to be sure, call your vet and ask. My guy went all crazy and puffed up and went to hide when I came with syringe(with out the needle ofc)
