Product Information

Full details

Flair Equine Nasal Strips are designed for performance horses and those recovering from respiratory fatigue, providing a drug-free, non-invasive method to keep nasal passages open during strenuous activity. By supporting the soft tissues of the nose, these strips significantly improve airflow and oxygen intake, though they are intended for single-use application and require proper surface preparation to ensure they stay secure during vigorous movement.

FAQs

Are Flair Nasal Strips allowed in F.E.I. competitions?

Yes, they are authorized by the F.E.I. for use in all disciplines.

Can I reuse a nasal strip?

No, these are single-use products. The adhesive strength is lost once removed.

Where exactly should the strip be placed?

The strip should be placed across the nasal passage just above the nostril, where the tissue is soft and prone to collapsing.

Will this help a horse with respiratory infections?

These strips are designed to assist with mechanical airflow limitations in healthy horses; they are not a cure for respiratory diseases. Consult a veterinarian for medical conditions.

How long can a horse wear the strip?

They should be applied shortly before activity and removed promptly after the horse has cooled down and recovered.

Troubleshooting

The strip falls off during exercise.

Ensure the nose was completely dry and free of grooming oils or sweat before application. If it fails to stick, wipe the area with a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to degrease the coat before trying again.

The horse tries to rub the strip off.

Distract the horse with a lead or feed during the application process, and ensure the strip is placed correctly so it does not irritate the sensitive edges of the nostrils.

Pros and Cons

Drug-free and F.E.I. compliant for all disciplines
Scientifically proven to reduce exercise-induced pulmonary stress

Easy to apply and remove without professional assistance

Cons

Designed for single-use only
Requires a clean, dry surface to adhere effectively
May be difficult to apply if the horse is particularly head-shy

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the strips provide maximum support, follow these steps for application:

Clean: Use a clean cloth or a specialized grooming wipe to remove all dust, dirt, and hair oils from the bridge of the nose.
Dry: Ensure the area is completely dry. If the coat is damp with sweat, the adhesive will not hold.
Position: Place the strip horizontally across the nasal passage, just above the nostrils, ensuring it covers the area prone to collapsing.
Secure: Press firmly along the adhesive edges to ensure a tight seal.

Removal is simple; gently peel the strip away from the hair after use. Do not reuse the same strip, as the adhesive integrity is compromised upon removal.
