Here is your reminder to check your alfalfa for the presence of blister beetle prior to feeding it to your horses—especially if you feed alfalfa hay from a new or unknown harvesting source.

"The blister beetle (Epicauta) is highly toxic to sheep and cattle, but primarily to horses," says AAEP member Dr. Benjamin Espy. "As little as four (4) to six (6) grams of blister beetles can be deadly to a 1100-pound horse. Blister beetles swarm in alfalfa fields and are drawn into bales by accident. Even small parts of these beetles are toxic to a horse, and whole insects need not be present to be dangerous. Although cantharidin can exist in the alfalfa used to make pellets and cubes, cantharidin toxicity is very rare by this route. Some people believe that it has to do with the processing, others believe that it’s because the feed companies are using alfalfa from reputable sources that have good insect control."

If you suspect your horse is showing signs of toxicity, call your veterinarian immediately. While there is no antidote for the toxin found in blister beetles, your veterinarian may still be able to save your horse by providing supportive care to combat dehydration, help evacuate toxins from the gastrointestinal tract and delay potential absorption. Since there are many representatives of the species Epicauta, contact your local agricultural agent so they can help you identify any beetle that looks suspicious.

Please share on...

To the jerk on 44 last night who roared around me and my horses in the merging lane at the last second and then had to slow down because of the traffic in front of us…. Please look closely at this face and realize when you drive like that you are endangering yourself, your passengers, myself, and any and all animals in my trailer.

My horses don’t have airbags, seatbelts or the ability to anticipate sudden stops from inside the trailer. And if I have to slam on the brakes and throw them around too much not only can they get injured but they start to not want to get back inside.

And they aren’t like a car that you just repair or replace if damaged. These animals take YEARS to train and thousands of dollars to keep healthy and fed.

I do my best to drive the speed limit, get over in lanes when at all possible and generally not be in the way of other drivers but please people stop being so inconsiderate when driving around trucks and horse trailers. Our cargo is precious and we require larger stopping distances. When you zip in and out of traffic and dart into my following cushion only to slam on the brakes it’s extremely dangerous and frustrating. Do us all a favor and realize that you moved to an area with farm/ranch traffic. Slow down, be kind and give us some space and grace.

Please share around especially to help educate those who just don’t know. I am aware some people just need to be made aware.
