Once branches have been cut/leaves fall from wild cherry trees and cyanide compounds form, how long does this pose a danger?
Last Updated: August 16, 2006
The cherry tree branches have the potential to be a problem for horses until the leaves are dry. When they are wilted, they pose the greatest risk to the horse if it should eat them. For most horse owners, the best practice is to remove all limbs from the wild cherry tree that fall or are cut and end up in a horse pasture. Once the leaves are dry, the potential for the cyanide to be a problem in no longer an issue.
