Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What's the difference between the version with ears and without ears?

Ans: The version with ear coverage includes extended fabric and a soft sport-knit material over the ears for extra protection while the version without ear coverage leaves the ears exposed but still fully protects the face and nose from sun and insects just as effectively.

Q2: Will this mask help protect my horse's ears from biting insects?

Ans: Yes, the sport-knit ear fabric and extended coverage behind the ears are designed to protect against small flies and gnats that commonly bother horses in that sensitive area during peak fly season each summer outdoors at pasture or in the barn.

Q3: Can the nose piece be removed?

Ans: Yes, the nose section attaches with Velcro so it can be taken off for washing or left on during cooler days when your horse needs the extra coverage most, giving you flexibility based on your horse's needs each year.

Q4: How much UV protection does this fly mask provide?

Ans: The mesh face panel and nose section block 80% of harmful UV rays helping reduce solar glare and protect your horse's eyes and face from sun damage during long days out in the pasture or arena throughout the summer months each year.

Q5: How long does this fly mask typically last?

Ans: This fly mask is designed to last for one full fly season with regular use. Stain-resistant materials and reinforced double seams help it withstand everyday wear, outdoor exposure and the demands of keeping your horse protected throughout the season.

Q6: How do I safely put this fly mask on my horse?

Ans: Approach calmly, since walking up with the mask suddenly may startle your horse. Secure a rope around the neck, remove the halter, then gently work the mask up from the left side of the head before covering one eye and fitting it over the ears.

Q7: Can I adjust the fit of this fly mask?

Ans: Yes, the straps can be trimmed with scissors for a more custom fit, and the mask should be adjusted to feel snug but comfortable, leaving enough room around the eyes for full visibility while your horse grazes or moves around freely.
