Good Management Practices

Preventing and controlling equine influenza requires good management practices. Here are some suggestions:

  1. Isolate all new arrivals and returning horses to your farm or ranch for 2-4 weeks to ensure they are not carrying an infection that may be transmitted to other horses in your facility.
  2. Keep ill horses quarantined until all clinical signs of illness are completely resolved.
  3. In the event of an influenza outbreak, care for healthy horses first, then attend to sick horses. Do not go back and forth between the two groups and do not share tack and equipment between the groups.
  4. Vaccinate with Flu Avert®I.N. vaccine at least twice a year or at more frequent intervals as prescribed by your veterinarian.
  5. Keep horses on a good nutrition, exercise and parasite control program.
  6. Minimize stress during training, travel and competition by maintaining schedules and environment as much as possible.
