How to Use
- Measure your horse from the poll to the muzzle and compare with the size guide to choose between pony, cob and full sizes.
- Unfasten the closure and slide the mask over the muzzle, easing the ears into the stretch mesh ear panels.
- Settle the eye darts so the mesh sits clear of the lashes on both sides.
- Fasten the closure snugly enough to stay put in the field, leaving room for two fingers beneath it.
- Check the fit daily, clear away grass seeds or bedding caught in the mesh and remove the mask if it becomes wet or clogged.
FAQ
What size fly mask does my horse need?
Fly masks are sized by horse type, typically pony, cob and full. Measure from the poll to the muzzle and compare against the size guide — a mask that is too large can slip and rub, while one that is too small can press against the eye darts.
Can my horse see through the Visor-Tek mesh?
Yes. The hexagon-pattern black mesh is designed for improved visibility, giving a clear, unobstructed view while still screening out flies.
Does this fly mask cover the ears and nose?
It does. Smooth stretch mesh covers the ears for breathability and fly protection, and an extended nose section gives sensitive noses further protection from the sun.
How much UV protection does it give?
The mask provides 70% overall UV protection, which suits horses turned out in bright conditions and those with pink or sun-sensitive skin.
Will it rub my horse's face?
Polar fleece binding runs around the edge of the mask and below the ears to soften the contact points and help prevent rubbing. Fit the mask snugly rather than loosely and check it daily.
How do I clean it?
Shake out loose dirt, hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent and allow to air dry away from direct heat. Do not tumble dry.
