Shimmering Fly Mask
The new SuperMask II Horse Fly Mask in
Shimmer Weave from Farnam Horse Products
protects your horse’s face and eyes from flies,
dirt, dust, and debris — as well as harmful
ultraviolet rays. The see-through, tri-color
Shimmer Weave mesh allows your horse to
see without obstruction, while the plush,
fly-proof trim won’t rub your horse’s skin.
Comes in copper mesh with cheetah or black
trim, and silver mesh with lynx or black trim.
Cost: From $22.47 (without ears); from $30.34 (with ears).
Insect-Repelling Fly Sheet
Horseware Ireland has teamed up with Insect Shield, LLC, to create the Amigo Bug Rug,
an insect-repelling fly sheet. The blanket’s
active ingredient (permethrin, a synthetic
version of a repellent derived from chrysanthemums)
is bound to the sheet’s fabric
fibers, and is EPA-registered to repel mosquitoes,
ticks, and flies. The odorless, colorless
repellent won’t rub off on you or your horse,
and remains effective through numerous
