Bucas Zebra Sweet-Itch Full Neck Fly Rug | Full Coverage Sweet Itch Fly Rug
Give your horse outstanding protection throughout the fly season with the Bucas Zebra Sweet-Itch Full Neck Fly Rug, expertly designed to help protect horses prone to sweet itch, summer eczema and insect irritation.
Made from a strong, specially developed polyester fabric, this premium rug creates an effective barrier against even the smallest biting insects, helping to reduce irritation caused by midges, flies and other pests. The full-body design provides maximum coverage, with an extended neck reaching to the ears to protect the entire mane and a generous tail flap to shield the dock and tail area—helping to minimise the itch-scratch cycle associated with sweet itch.
The scientifically proven zebra stripe pattern helps deter flies by disrupting their visual perception, making it more difficult for insects to land. In addition to reducing fly irritation, the fabric also provides excellent UV protection, helping to prevent sun bleaching and maintain a healthy, vibrant coat.
An elasticated, detachable belly pad offers complete underbody protection from the elbows to the sheath while helping to keep the rug securely positioned throughout turnout. Comfort features include silk-feel lining across the shoulders and along the crest of the neck to help prevent rubbing, shoulder darts for unrestricted movement, and an elasticated browband to keep the neck cover comfortably in place.
Finished with Bucas' reliable T-bar front closure with Snap-lock magnetic fastening, adjustable leg straps and a fillet string, the Bucas Zebra Sweet-Itch Rug delivers exceptional comfort, durability and comprehensive insect protection for horses requiring maximum summer coverage.
Ideal for horses suffering from sweet itch or those needing enhanced defence against flies, midges and harmful UV rays.
