Did you know? Those pretty wildflowers in summer pastures aren't always as harmless as they look. 🌸

Several common field plants, including some thistle varieties and buttercup, can be mildly toxic or cause digestive issues in cattle and other livestock when grazed in large quantities.

Most animals will naturally avoid them when they have plenty of good forage available. But when pasture is overgrazed or dry, hungry animals are much less selective about what they eat.

Keeping forage quality high and monitoring grazing rotation is one of the simplest things you can do to protect your herd this summer. 🫡

🏠 Keep pets secured inside your home – Even dogs in fenced yards may panic and escape. Don’t rely on outdoor barriers.
🛏️ Create a safe, quiet space – Set up a cozy room or crate where your pet can retreat. Add blankets, toys, or items with your scent.
🔊 Use background noise – Fans, TVs, or calming music can help mask the sound of fireworks.
🧘 Try calming aids – Consider using anxiety vests, pheromone diffusers, or veterinarian-recommended calming treats or medications. Call your vet today - don't delay!
📍 Double-check ID tags and microchips – In case your pet does get out, make sure they can be identified and returned quickly.
🧠 Know your pet’s signs of stress – Pacing, hiding, whining, or excessive grooming may mean they need extra support.

🐄🪰 New World Screwworm Prevention Tips for South Georgia

With warm weather and plenty of flies, now is the time to stay vigilant.

✅ Check livestock, pets, and wildlife regularly for wounds.

✅ Treat cuts, dehorning sites, branding wounds, navels on newborns, and castration sites promptly.

✅ Use fly control products to reduce fly populations around animals.

✅ Keep wounds clean and protected until fully healed.

✅ Isolate and inspect any animal showing unusual swelling, foul-smelling wounds, or maggots.

✅ Report suspected cases immediately to your veterinarian or the Georgia Department of Agriculture.

The New World Screwworm isn't just a nuisance—its larvae feed on living tissue and can cause severe injury or death if left untreated.

Stop by Pelham Feed and Seed for fly control products, wound treatments, and livestock health supplies to help protect your herd this season.
