THOROUGHBRED breeders are crying "enough is enough" and calling for bats to be culled to try and save an industry rocked by two deadly bat-borne viruses.

Thoroughbred Breeders Queensland Association president and Gladfield's Raheen Stud owner Basil Nolan said the latest case of lyssavirus was just the cherry on top of a cake he had been hoping someone would tend to before it was too late.

With hendra, and now this, Mr Nolan said it was time to act before we lost the horse industry all together.

"When will enough be enough?" Mr Nolan said.

"I don't want the bats wiped out, but they do need to be managed more adequately. They are putting lives at risk unnecessarily."

Mr Nolan said he was willing to cop the blow-out from those opposing his opinions for reducing bat numbers, much like during the hendra outbreak.

"I'll wear the criticism," he said.

"The cut and dry of it is these bats are a pest and are dangerous and it's time action was taken."

It comes as a property west of Allora, Highborne Farm, remains quarantined after two horses were euthanised after contracting the deadly Australian Bat Lyssavirus.

Scientists from the Queensland Centre for Emerging Infectious Diseases will conduct property profiles on Highborne Farm to determine what species of bats are present and what behaviour they exhibit.

Biosecurity Queensland is trying to determine how the two paddocked yearlings contracted the virus, which is believed to be spread through bodily fluids such as saliva to a cut.

While there is a bat colony at Allora, suggestions have been raised that the virus may have been spread via stock feed, with an infected bat possibly dying during harvesting or production of the grain and transmitting the disease through the feed.

A group of chief vets from each state are meeting this week to discuss their next move.

Those who came in contact with the infected horses have been vaccinated against rabies but now have an anxious six-month wait until they can be given the all clear.
