Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Bucas Buzz-Off Extended Nose Fly Mask feature zebra stripes?
Research has found that flies are disoriented and confused by the contrast of black and white zebra stripes, causing them to steer clear compared to solid-coloured masks. The pattern is a deliberate design choice to enhance fly protection.
How does the mask stay securely in place on the horse?
The mask uses a hook and loop closure on the jaw bone and a magnetic snap-lock closure on the chin groove to keep it securely fitted.

Yes. The extended nose design covers the nose area and extends down the face, offering protection against both flies and sunlight beyond just the eye area.
How does the mask prevent rubbing or contact with the horse's eyes?
Darts along the bottom of the mask are designed to keep the fabric away from the horse's eyes.
