Flavivirus neurological disease in horses
You may or may not be aware of the recent increase in neurological disease in horses, due to a flavivirus carried by mosquitoes.
You may wish to inform your members that further information is available at Go to Pests diseases
Fortunately as cooler weather sets in this will reduce the mosquito population, and therefore the risk of disease. Anyone who suspects that their horse is affected by this disease should contact their veterinarian promptly.
It is now complusory to thoroughly clean the yards after your horse including your rubbish or you will be fined. The committee will inspect your yard/area for cleaniness.
