Product Information
Full details
The Horseware Ireland Amigo Fly Mask is designed for horse owners seeking reliable insect defense combined with sun protection for their equine companions. Its standout feature is the durable, breathable Textilene mesh that blocks flies while filtering 65% of UV rays, making it an ideal choice for horses prone to irritation or sunburn in the pasture. While it offers excellent visibility and a snug fit, users should ensure they select the correct size to prevent gaps that could allow insects to sneak in around the jawline.

FAQs
Does this mask protect against UV rays?
Yes, it is designed to filter 65% of UV rays, which helps protect sensitive skin on the horse's face.
Can my horse wear this in the rain?
The material is lightweight and waterproof, making it suitable for turnout in light rain.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The mask should fit snugly against the face without being tight, and the fleece should sit comfortably around the jaw and ears without gaps.
Is the material machine washable?
We recommend hand washing with mild detergent to extend the lifespan of the mesh and fleece edging.
Will this limit my horse's vision?
No, the mask is designed with a contoured shape to maintain a clear line of sight while keeping the mesh away from the eyes.
Troubleshooting
The mask keeps slipping off
Check that the closure is properly secured and verify the size matches your horse's head measurements.
The mesh is touching the horse's eyes
Readjust the position of the mask on the poll; the design should maintain a "tent" shape away from the face.
Horse is rubbing the mask on fences
Ensure the fleece trim is clean and soft; if the mask is dusty, perform a quick rinse as dirt can irritate the skin.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides 65% UV protection
- Breathable mesh keeps the horse cool
- Soft fleece padding prevents sores and rubbing
- Excellent visibility for the horse
Cons
- Requires precise sizing for the best seal
- Pony sizing may not fit all head shapes
- Mesh can become dusty after heavy field use
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best performance, ensure the mask is positioned so the fleece edging sits comfortably around the horse's face without pulling on the ears. Regularly check the closure to ensure it is tight enough to stay in place but loose enough for the horse to move its jaw comfortably.
For maintenance, rinse the mask with a hose to remove daily dust and debris. If it becomes heavily soiled, hand wash with a mild, horse-safe detergent and air dry. Avoid using a machine dryer, as high heat can damage the integrity of the Textilene mesh and the fleece trim.
