The LeMieux Kudos Sweet Itch Rug is designed to protect horses from biting insects, such as midges, which commonly cause sweet itch, and to prevent skin irritation and rubbing.
Refer to the brand's sizing guide. It's important to measure your horse accurately from the front of the chest to the rear of the tail flap to ensure a proper fit.
The rug is primarily designed for insect protection and is made from Oxford weave cloth. While it offers some protection, it is not a waterproof rug and should not be relied upon for heavy rain.
Wash the rug when it becomes visibly dirty or loses its effectiveness against insects. Following the care instructions for washing and drying will help maintain its properties.
The unique 45-degree slanted T-bar front closure is engineered to distribute pressure more evenly across the chest and point of the shoulder, reducing the risk of rubbing and increasing comfort for the horse.
No, the full neck cover is integrated into the rug for maximum protection against insects and is not designed to be removed.
The wither pad is made of perforated neoprene to enhance comfort and reduce friction at the wither area.
Ensure the rug is the correct size and fitted properly. Check that the T-bar closure is not too tight and that the shoulder gussets are lying flat and not twisted.
While designed to be lightweight and breathable, ensure the horse is not overheating in extreme temperatures. Consider removing the rug during cooler parts of the day if necessary. Ensure the rug is clean, as dirt can impede breathability.
Ensure all straps are aligned correctly before fastening. If straps are stiff, they may loosen with use. Check for any debris caught in the fastenings.
Verify that the rug fits well and covers all susceptible areas. Ensure all seams and fastenings are intact. Keep the rug clean, as dirt can clog the fabric weave.
