WILD Horse Australia uses a unique patented process that tightly bonds the fabric fibres with Permethrin creating long-term Insect Protection. Tests show that after 6 months of weathering and 25 detergent washes there is still up to 91% of the Insect Control remaining in the fabric. The Super Strength Mesh is made from slightly heavier interwoven yarns of different weights to achieve durability and coolness. The Rug/Hood Design offers full protection of both body & head and a pol strap for full security. Hood and Rug are connected with our unique LYCRA connector offering both mane & wither release!
Also available as a Combo Rug with no Hood.

REVIEWS
-
My favourite for insect defence! Good quality insect repellent rug with generous coverage over tail and sides. Quality strapping and clips very happy with the product overall. Plus it is lighter in weight then others which is extremely beneficial during hot summer days in central qld while the insects are at their worst.
-
Great anti itch rug ! I have an itchy horse and keeping the flys and mosquitoes off him is critical. The only rug that actually works
-
This rug fits my horse perfectly since he has been wearing it he has hardly been rubbing the hood stays in place very well so his face has nearly completely healed. Very happy owner
-
Superior product for insect control and fit. Amazing rug. Fantastic quality and proven product to keep the bugs at bay. I particularly like the large tail flap.

Fantastic Rug! My horse has QLD itch and this rug gives me piece of mind when the hot summer days are above 35 degrees, I know he is still protected with a breathable rug. It has held up quite well, lasted longer than I thought it would. The fixings and features are quality made, well worth the price! He finally has relief without being sweaty, itchy and uncomfortable in a regular cotton combo. The tail bag is extremely generous and I love the feature that allows the head to extend while eating, it must offer such comfort without being restricting like most rugs. Can’t say enough good things about this one, if you’re contemplating getting it, just do it! Your horse will thank you for it. I think I’ll have to get the cotton version for the season leading up to itch season. Thank you Wild Horse!
