FAQs

What level of UV protection does the mask offer?

The mask provides 75% UV protection, offering significant defense against harmful UV rays.

How do I clean the fly mask?

It is recommended to hand wash the mask with mild detergent. It can also be machine washed on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees with a washing tablet or capsule.

Can I tumble dry the mask?

No, never tumble dry the mask. Always air dry it away from direct heat sources.

What makes the fit 'generous'?

The design has more room over the eye darts, cheeks, and headpiece, creating greater stand-off from the horse's face for increased comfort and coverage.

Is the mask suitable for horses with sensitive skin?

Yes, the soft, breathable Bamboo lining strips along the brow and nose are designed to prevent rubbing and irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Measure your horse's head and compare it to the sizing guide. Adjust the elasticated headpiece and throat strap for a secure yet comfortable fit, ensuring adequate clearance around the eyes.

Will the mesh prevent flies from reaching my horse's eyes?

The heavy-duty silver mesh is designed to act as a physical barrier against flies and midges while maintaining clear vision.

Troubleshooting

Mask does not fit securely

Adjust the elasticated headpiece and throat strap for a tighter fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected for your horse.

Horse seems uncomfortable or rubbing

Check that the mask is the correct size and the eye darts are positioned correctly, providing adequate clearance. Ensure no hair is trapped uncomfortably. Clean the mask regularly to remove debris.

Mesh appears to obstruct vision

Ensure the mesh is clean and free from dirt or debris. Verify the mask is fitted correctly so the eye darts are providing maximum stand-off.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
