So last weekend we adopted an English bulldog from a rescue. After taking her to the vet we found out she had a couple parasites including hookworm . The vet told us it's uncommon for humans to get it from animals, researching it it seams like you can contract it from the larvae which is exuded in fecal matter. Long story I have five gallons and a few spray bottles of starsan around . Will starsan kill the larvae if I pour it where she goes to the bathroom outside (or inside ) I'm have toddlers so I'm a little paranoid that they will pick up these somehow
I have an english bully also, her name is Meatball lol. She also came home with worms, why? Becaues they eat everything including poop which is pretty much how they get it and it spreads from dog to dog.
So first, watch your bully make sure he/she is not eating the poop otherwise it becomes a never ending cycle..also if you have any other dogs take them outside at separate times to prevent this also.
Scoop and get rid of the poop right after your bully finishes. Then wash your hands.
Make sure your bully starts and stays on heart worm prevention that med actually prevents a lot more than just heart worms.
It is highly unlikely you or your child will contract these worms. Although I do understand the concern but if you follow these steps and treat the dog and dispose of the poop immediately it should be fine.
Also understand that some meds that are giving to dogs to de-worm might cause diarrhea I would check on that with your doctor before giving your bully the meds and then lets say cage him/her and goto work. You might want to do it in the evening or a weekend when you might be home and can let the dog out.
Last thing, no I don't think star san will do anything but if it puts your mind to ease then go for it. Personally I took a little dawn soap and water.
