⭐ Insects This Fabric Helps Repel
Flies
From midges to biting stable flies, flies are the most common pest horses face in Australia.
They cause irritation, rubbing and stamping, and can spread bacteria, making effective fly protection essential for comfort and health.
Misquitoes
Only female mosquitoes bite, and they can lay up to 1,000 eggs in their short lifespan.
Their bites cause itching, skin irritation and allergic reactions.
Ticks
Ticks attach to the skin and feed on blood, posing risks of irritation, infection and illness.
Bites can cause swelling and discomfort and, in some cases, transmit serious diseases.
Lice
Lice are tiny, wingless parasites that live on a horse’s skin and coat, feeding on blood or skin debris.
They cause intense itching, rubbing and patchy hair loss, especially in winter when coats are thicker.
Bots
Bot flies don’t bite, they lay eggs on the legs, chest or mane. Digested during grooming they develop into larvae in the mouth and stomach, causing irritation or colic.
IR3535 helps reduce landings, but does not target bot flies.Egg removal, grooming and worming still required
