FULL DESCRIPTION
We have used a unique patented process that tightly bonds insect protection deep into the fabric fibres of our Cool Mesh Rug/Hoods.

As a purchaser of your ripstock rugs for our stud horses and first time buyer of the mesh rug, I have to say you have made another excellent rug. As always a great fitting rug and still handles our conditions & requirement excellently.

I love these rugs. ALL my horses wear them. The fit is fantastic and they sit really well on the horses. I have never had any problems with these rugs. Happy, happy horses and their coats look great!

Happy Horse!!! Very fast delievery and fantastic rug! it keeps my horse nice and protected from those horrible bitties. He is now one happy horse now 🙂
-
Fantastic rug. I bought the insect mesh rug with hood and ears. My poor horse has been driven mad by itching skin have tried everything. Other mesh rug, sprays and lotions. He has only had rug on for 2 weeks and already his skin has settled down. The welts have gone. I think in about a months time even his hair will have grown back.

Great fit, great quality. The insert at wither is a huge benefit. From an Emmett Muscle Release Therapists point of view the wither insert is a tremendous inclusion as the wither area and the strap pressure has a huge influence on the horses muscular system.
The repellent certainly works in South East Queensland for ticks and midges. Highly recommended. -
Great product but they are rather generous on the sizing. I got my ponies normal size rug and I wish I had of gone one size smaller. Never mind lesson for next time as I will buy again after I have saved up. They are rather expensive.

I have just purchased my first wildhorse rug for my very itchy filly. She’s only had it for two weeks, and we had an ear get ripped, but I’m finding she is not scratching nowhere near as much. Her coat is also very shiny. I like them so much I’ve just purchased a fly mask to see how they go.
