The Dangers of Sycamore seedlings for horses

Sycamore seedlings are now becoming established with the wet & warm Spring weather.  The seedlings if found in equine pastures can prove fatal if ingested by grazing horses, ponies and donkeys.  It is important to control access to grazing in affected areas at this time of year.

Tree Surgery can be beneficial in reducing the spread of seedlings by removing limbs, overall tree height or complete removal if necessary. More information on signs of ‘Atypical myopathy’ in equines can be found on the BHS website here.
