The solution to get rid of annoying horse-flies when riding
Did you plan nice trips with your horse this summer? You probably also planned a lovely trail ride! The only problem is that during this summertime annoying horse-flies are very active. Both in the forest and near grass and water, from sunrise to sunset, these annoying insects literally can't be repelled from your horse.
In order to be able to take your horse on a quiet trip without your horse being annoyed all the way by annoying horse-flies, a handy exercise fly sheet is just what you need!
We help you choose and have listed our musthave for you here below!
The rug has a removable neck which is easily attached to the rug and bridle with Velcro straps. The rug has a shoulder gussets for extra freedom of movement (ideal for a gallop through the woods) and gussets for the girth and riders legs. Thanks to the saddle gussets - which can be attached over or under the saddle flap - the rug stays neatly on the back of your horse. What more do you want?
The exercise sheet Eppleck Zebra hase the same features as the Fly Rider mentioned above. But what makes this rug even more unique is the zebra print. You have probably heard of this unique innovation with the world of fly sheets. It has been scientifically proven that flies get confused by zebra stripes and therefore stay away from the horse. Horse-flies look for heat sources and the way the sun reflects on them. Narrow, black stripes on a white coat provide strange signals so that the flies will not be able to approach them. And on top of that, it is a very nice print for your horse, right?!
The Exercise fly sheet Epplejeck Full Neck has a fixed neck. Unlike the two rugs mentioned here above, the Full Neck also protects the chest of the horse. This part has an adjustable buckle closure for a great fit. This rug also has a fine mesh made of soft polyester and is lightweight and breathable. We like!
And last but not least, the exercise fly sheet Epplejeck. This one has no neckpiece and is easy to attach over or under the saddle flap. The rug remains stable on the back of your horse with the Velcro fastening at the front. This fly sheet is ideal for warming up or cooling down or at showgrounds in the woods.
All these exercise fly sheets are suitable for riding. A canter through the woods is no problem. Thanks to the saddle gussets these rugs stay perfectly in place. Because of the fine mesh, horse-flies have no chance of biting and your horse will not get irritated by them.
