As an aside, neurocysticercosis is when worms from undercooked infected pork get into the brain and eat little holes in it:

Agree woth the other posters that we would recognize symptoms and take it on an as needed basis. But I want to add that even in the horse world, recently there has been less regular deworming on a schedule and more of fecal testing on a schedule, and only deworming if anyone in a shared pasture is infected.
