A horse typically will not eat Ragwort when it is fresh as it taste bitter. However when it is dried it has no flavor and horses will consume it, either on pasture or in hay. Ragwort is toxic and causes cirrhosis of the liver. It can take as little as 3% of the horses body weight in ragwort to cause destruction of the liver. Ragwort has many other names, but they all fall under the scientific names of Jacobaea Vulgaris , and syn. Senecio jacobaea. Common names for Ragwort include: Benweed, st. James-wort,ragweed, tansy ragwort, staggerwort, cushag, mare's fart,cankerwort, dog standard , stammerwort, and stinking nanny/willy/ninny. You can prevent ragwort poisoning by hand weeding any area where a horse may have contact with ragwort, ensure you pull up the complete root system or it will regrow.
There is only one actual herb. Tansy, in which all the leaves, petals, and stems chewed and eaten will get rid of worms. Nothing stops worms from getting in but the tansy will get rid of them. I hope I helped.
