FAQs

How much UV protection does this mask offer?

The WeatherBeeta ComFiTec Deluxe Stretch Fly Mask with Ears blocks up to 65% of harmful UV rays.

Is this mask suitable for all horses?

This mask is designed for horses and is available in various sizes, including Extra Large. It's important to select the correct size for a comfortable and effective fit.

Can my horse graze while wearing this mask?

Yes, the mask is designed to allow for comfortable grazing. The raised mesh eye panels ensure clear vision, and the flexible fabric moves with the horse.

How do I clean the fly mask?

You can hand wash or machine wash the mask on a gentle cycle using cold water and mild soap. Air dry only.

Does the mask cover the horse's ears?

Yes, this model includes soft mesh ear covers that provide protection and airflow.

What is the purpose of the zip closure?

The zip closure under the jaw makes fitting and removal of the mask quick and easy, ensuring a secure fit.

Will this mask prevent all flies from bothering my horse?

This mask provides effective protection against flies and insects. While it significantly reduces exposure, complete prevention may depend on the severity of insect pressure and the fit of the mask.

Troubleshooting

Mask does not fit securely.

Check that the zip closure is fully fastened and that the mask is the correct size for your horse. Ensure the forelock hole is correctly positioned.

Horse appears uncomfortable or rubs the mask.

Verify the mask is the correct size and not too tight. Ensure the stretch fabric is not bunching in any areas. Clean the mask to remove any debris that might cause irritation.

Mesh eye panels are obstructed.

Clean the mesh gently with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris that may impair vision. Ensure the mask is sitting correctly on the horse's face.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent comfort due to soft, stretch fabric that moves with the horse.
  • Provides clear vision with raised mesh eye panels.
  • Effectively protects against flies and insects.
  • Includes significant UV protection (up to 65%).
  • Easy to put on and take off with a zip closure.
  • Breathable ear design for added comfort.

Cons

  • May require careful sizing to avoid any restriction or discomfort.
  • Stretch fabric, while comfortable, might be susceptible to damage from very persistent chewing or scratching horses.
  • While offering good UV protection, it may not block 100% of UV rays.
  • Primarily designed for protection against insects and sun; not a barrier against cold or heavy rain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the mask is the correct size for your horse. Refer to sizing guides if necessary.
  2. Gently place the mask over the horse's head, aligning the eye openings.
  3. Fasten the zip closure located under the jaw. Ensure it is secure but not overly tight.
  4. Check that the mask sits comfortably and does not impede movement or vision.

Care:

  • Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water.
