BUSSE Fly Mask FLY GUARD FREE PLUS – lightweight eye and nose protection with free ears

The BUSSE Fly Mask FLY GUARD FREE PLUS gives your horse reliable protection from insects around the head during summer – without covering the ears. It's a great fit for horses and ponies with a heavy forelock or those that simply dislike ear coverings. The mask combines extra light eye protection with fixed nose protection made from fine mesh fabric.

Thanks to the generous cut-out around the ear area, your horse stays relaxed while eyes and nose remain safely shielded from insects and sun exposure. The soft, breathable nylon/polyester functional fabric across the cheek and forehead area is slightly elastic, giving your horse plenty of freedom of movement on pasture, paddock or in the horse walker. Two wide Velcro fasteners make the mask easy to put on and adjust in length.

Warning/safety information

For the benefit of your horse!

A fly mask has to fit well to be able to help. Otherwise damage may occur. The fit must fit the horse/pony's head. You can make a final adjustment using any setting options on the product. Even with an optimally fitted fly mask, the fit must be checked regularly, conscientiously and professionally and corrected if necessary. If the fly mask slips, vision can be limited or lost. For the horse, a flight animal, this can lead to panic and cause accidents. The ideal seat can be jeopardized by, for example, rubbing in the head area or conspecifics kept in groups. The use of fly masks is not recommended in such individual cases. Check the fur and skin regularly for chafing. Even with optimally fitting fly masks, these can be caused by foreign substances (e.g. stones, insects) between the mask and the horse. The risk of skin irritation increases due to sweat. Clean the mask regularly.
