Everything You Need to Know About Fly Masks

Soft Mesh Ears for Extra Protection

When your horse is irritated by biting insects flying around their ears, a fly mask with ear coverage can help! This fly mask is designed with soft mesh ears that keep even the smallest biting insects out of your horse’s sensitive ears.

Forelock Saver Design to Keep Your Horse’s Eye Clear

The forelock-saver design gives you the option to keep your horse’s forelock pulled out of the mask, keeping it out of their eyes. This is a perfect choice for horses with sensitive eyes, recovering from a wound, or simply as a style choice!

Simply Zip On and Off for a Secure Fit

The UltraFlex® Fly Mask uses a heavy-duty zipper that fully separates the back of the jaw to easily put on and remove the fly mask without having to pull over your horse’s ears.

Here are a few alternative suggestions:

Reviews

Great option for a different style mask

"Great fly mask. My mare gets rubs from other types and this one did not run at all. The forelock hole is a bit small and high so that rubbed a bit of hair and I stopped using it, otherwise it would be 5 stars. Sturdier than I thought, used every night in turnout and only got a few very small holes."

— Cat (4/5)

Okay(ish )

"Kind of flimsy. The mesh does not hold its shape and will push in to the horses eyes. I want better for my horses. 🤷‍♀️"

— Erika (2/5)

These have stayed on horses

"These have stayed on horses which absolutely love to scrape off older style masks. I think the horses appreciate the better vision they have with this style as well. One of the three masks I purchased had a zipper tab too far over and it was difficult to zip up until I snipped the protruding end off. I have destructive horses, so one of the masks has a couple of small holes in it where they've rubbed their head on a wood post. Overall, these masks work really well, and I think the horses like them. Overall, a good buy."

These are the best of all of the bug eye masks.

"These are the best of all of the bug eye masks. The zipper makes it so easy and the XL is great for my one draft. They are the only ones I will buy."

— Heather G. (5/5)

No fuss

"I fully expected my horses to have a “breaking in,” “getting to know you” period but this fly mask went on easily and the horses were totally comfortable."

— JENNIFER M. (5/5)

Works well

"I like the big eye mesh as it seems to stay away from his eyes and he is with 12 other geldings who like to play rough! It does come off at times but not ripped. Would recommend"

— Rachelle W. (5/5)
