Bug Off Fly Mask for Horses — Effective Fly Protection for NZ Summers

New Zealand summers bring flies, and lots of them. For horses, constant fly harassment causes stress, head-shaking, eye irritation, and in some cases contributes to eye infections. The Bug Off Fly Mask is one of the most effective horse fly masks available in NZ — well-designed, tolerated readily by most horses, and built to stay on through a full day in the paddock.

The key difference is the flexible stays that hold the mask away from the horse’s face. Unlike fly masks that sag onto the eyes and muzzle, the Bug Off maintains its shape — giving the horse clear vision and helping reduce the rubbing that causes many horses to remove or resist a mask.

The self-supporting ear covers are a standout feature for NZ conditions. Lined with soft sweat-absorbing material, they’re critical in summer heat — and many horses that object to ear covers on other masks accept these readily. A very fine mesh helps keep even small insects out while maintaining excellent visibility, and short-nap fleece around the perimeter creates a comfortable, debris-resistant seal without causing rubs.

The elastic closure with Velcro tabs provides a secure, adjustable fit — ideal for horses that are hard to fit with standard fly masks.
