The Waldhausen Premium Fly Mask with Ears is designed for horse owners seeking reliable, high-quality insect protection during turnout. It features a spacious eye-area design, soft faux fur padding for comfort, and integrated UV protection. While it offers excellent defense against flies and sun damage, users should ensure proper sizing and periodic cleaning to maintain the integrity of the breathable materials and touch tape fastenings.

While it is designed for durability, it is recommended to remove and inspect the mask daily to ensure the skin remains healthy and the fasteners remain secure.
Yes, the fabric is designed to offer a protective barrier against UV radiation, which helps prevent sun-related skin issues.
The mask includes adjustable fasteners to accommodate many shapes, but ensure you select the appropriate size for your horse (Pony, Cob, Full, or X-Full) for the best results.
Gently hand-wash with mild detergent and brush the faux fur with a soft-bristled brush once dry to restore its fluffiness.
The materials used are breathable and designed for summer use, allowing for adequate airflow to the ears.
Adjust the touch tape fasteners on the cheeks and poll to ensure a tighter fit to the halter, and check that the elastic noseband is correctly tensioned.
Use a stiff brush or tweezers to remove hair and debris trapped in the hook-and-loop fabric, then press firmly to re-engage.
Ensure the mask is correctly sized for your horse's head; if rubbing persists, check that the faux fur padding is correctly positioned against the forehead.
To set up the mask, align the eye openings over the horse's eyes before securing the poll and cheek touch tape fasteners to the halter. Ensure the mask is snug but not tight; the elastic nose fastening should allow for slight movement while grazing. For maintenance, it is recommended to hand-wash the mask in cool water with mild, horse-safe detergent to preserve the UV-blocking properties and the integrity of the faux fur. Air dry the mask away from direct heat sources to prevent the elastic from losing its shape. Regularly inspect the touch tape closures to ensure they are free of mud or hair, which can compromise their grip strength.
