Help protect your horse from flies, midges and biting insects with our collection of sweet itch and fly rugs. Designed specifically for horses prone to sweet itch, insect sensitivity and fly irritation, these specialist rugs provide extensive coverage to help reduce exposure to the insects that can trigger discomfort and rubbing.
Sweet itch is a common seasonal skin condition caused by an allergic reaction to midge bites. Horses affected by sweet itch often rub their mane, tail and body, leading to hair loss, skin damage and ongoing irritation. Sweet itch rugs are designed to provide maximum coverage across vulnerable areas, helping to create a protective barrier between your horse and biting insects.
Our collection includes sweet itch rugs, fly rugs with neck covers, full-coverage fly sheets and specialist insect protection rugs from leading equestrian brands. Many designs feature integrated neck covers, large belly flaps, extended tail protection and breathable fabrics that allow airflow while helping to keep flies and midges away from the skin.
Alongside sweet itch rugs, our fly rug range offers lightweight protection against flies, horseflies and other biting insects during spring and summer turnout. These rugs help improve comfort while allowing horses to enjoy turnout during periods of increased insect activity. Lightweight mesh fabrics help maintain airflow and reduce the risk of overheating during warmer weather.
Suitable for horses and ponies of all breeds and disciplines, sweet itch and fly rugs are an essential part of summer horse care for many owners. Whether your horse suffers from sweet itch, is sensitive to insect bites or simply benefits from additional fly protection, these rugs help support comfort throughout the grazing season.
