In summer, it’s wise to invest in a fly rug to protect your horse in the field. Like the Bucas Buzz Off or Equilibrium Field Relief Fly Rug.
These are lightweight and reflective, to keep the sun off and the horse cool, but essentially work by covering his body.
Some horses suffer badly with Sweet Itch, an allergic response to Culicoide midge bites. This results in skin lesions that are aggravated by the horse rubbing them.
You can also get fly masks to protect their eyes. Don't worry we sell these to.
