The composition of claim 1, wherein the particulate solid carrier is microcrystalinne cellulose, calcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, mannitol, kaolin, or any combination thereof. 8. The composition of claim 1, further comprising a stabilizer, a flavoring agent, a flavor enhancer, a preservative, a tensoactive, a lubricant, a diluent, a lubricant, a pH adjustment agent, or an antioxidant, or any combination thereof. 9. A feed or feed supplement composition comprising a) feed or feed supplement offered to animals and b) an efficacious amount of said composition of claim 1. 10. The feed or feed supplement composition of claim 9, wherein the feed is ground or pelletized. 11. The feed or feed supplement composition of claim 9, wherein the feed supplement is sodium chloride, mineralized salt, calcium phosphate, a vitamin concentrate, a protein supplement, or any combination thereof. 12. A kit for controlling nematodes that develop in ruminant's feces comprising a canister containing the composition of claim 1 and a dosing device. 13. The kit of claim 12 further comprising written instructions for its use. 14. The kit of claim 12, wherein the canister contains about 300 g of said composition and a 25g-dosing device for dosing of said composition. 15. The kit of claim 12, wherein said canister is a pail containing about 6 kg of said composition and a 25g-dosing device for dosing of said composition. 16. A method to control eggs and larvae of helminths present in ruminants' feces, said method comprising administering to an animal, by oral route, through means of feed or feed supplement, the composition of claim 1. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein said method enhances zootechnical performance of ruminants by means of controlling eggs and infective larvae in their habitat. 18. The composition of claim 1, wherein said benzimidazole compound is present in an amount of from 0.1 wt% to about 20 wt%, based on the total weight of said composition. 19. The composition of claim 1, wherein said benzimidazole compound is present in an amount of from 0.1 wt% to about 20 wt%, said hydrophobic polymer is present in an amount of from about 5 wt% to about 55 wt%, said hydrophilic polymer is present in an amount of from 0 wt% to about 40 wt% and said particulate solid carrier is present in an amount of from 40 wt% to about 75 wt%, based on a total weight of said composition. 20. The composition of claim 1, wherein said benzimidazole compound in said composition is bioactively released on a delayed release basis. 21. The composition of claim 20, wherein said delayed release is from about 10 hours to 72 hours from consumption of the composition by an animal. 22. The method of claim 16, wherein said composition is delayed released with respect to said benzimidazole compound such that the release occurs in the feces of said ruminant. 23. The method of claim 16, wherein said animal after 10 hours to 72 hours has a residue of said benzimidazole compound of less than 100 ppm. 24. The method of claim 16, wherein said animal after 10 hours to 72 hours has a residue of said benzimidazole compound of less than 1 ppm. 25. The composition of claim 1, wherein said hydrophilic polymer is present and is hypromellose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, carragenine, hydroxipropilmethylcellulose, or any combination thereof 26. The composition of claim 1, wherein one or more of the following is additional present in the composition: starch, talcum powder, calcium carbonate, silicon dioxide, ethyl citrate, or any combination. 27. The composition of claim 1, wherein said benzimidazole compound is present in an amount of from 0.1 wt% to about 20 wt%, said hydrophobic polymer is present in an amount of from about 5 wt% to about 55 wt%, said hydrophilic polymer is present in an amount of from 2.5 wt% to about 30 wt% and said particulate solid carrier is present in an amount of from 40 wt% to about 75 wt%, based on a total weight of said composition.
