i see that people have said that there are different types of worms depending on your whereabouts in the country, we are based in leicestershire/warwickshire borders and were wondering what wormers people are using in that area. bearing in mind out cattle were bought from the monmouth midwales area

Take a dung sample (collect a small amount from several different piles of dung) to your vet to see what worms your cattle have. Then choose a product relevant to those results. Pour ons are easiest to use but don't cover all types of worm. I find easiest method for collecting dung is to put your hand inside a strong polythene bag, collect the samples, turn bag inside out and tie securely. Label!!
