Made from a breathable functional fibre fabric in a fine mesh weave, it combines a fixed neck part, a wide belly flap and a tail flap so biting insects cannot reach the most commonly affected areas.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is best for horses turned out during midge season, for sensitive skins that react to bites along the mane, midline and dock, and for owners who want one rug rather than separate neck and belly pieces. Elastic inserts at the shoulder and neck give ample freedom of movement for grazing and rolling.
