I bought a drench wormer and when I opened it up there was no attachment for a tube. Everything else I’ve bought had an adapter. What do you do with these? Are you meant to use a syringe instead? Seems weird. Didn’t realise at the time of buying it as I assumed stupidly that it was under the sealed cap...

Picture or name of the product , most have a cap to fit a tube inside the box either loose or in a sealed bag along with strap to hang the container by . Some have a tube connector under a flip up top inside the cap

After reading your other posts ,have you bought 1lt of oramec ? if so looks like you need to pour the white wormer you have into a container ,wash out the back pack and use that then do reverse

I've brought one without a cap before, I think it got lost in the shop, so keep all the caps you have now in case it happens again - I have quite a supply :roflanim:

It was the Oramec. It didn’t come in a box so no adapter there, and it didn’t have it around the neck. Looking online it refers to using a gun but who knows how! It didn’t even have holes in the plastic at the bottom where you’d normally thread through something so you can sling it over your shoulder.
Tried the white wormer lid but the threads were different so wouldn’t screw on tight. Also tried the (unused) Crovect cap which was too big. Employed the other half’s help and he found a cap that had the same thread (part of some thing he uses as a heating engineer) so managed to get that on with a load of ptfe tape. It was a palaver to say the least.
When the white wormer runs out I’ll definitely be keeping the bottle!!
