Masks

Fly masks are simple devices. Buy one with multiple straps or zipper and is constructed of tough, mesh material. The thickness of the mask material is of little consequence to the horse, as we have used both light weight and heavy weight masks. The latter have held up much better. You can see the torm masks here.

As you can see from the picture below, the mask has one strap.  We bought two and they both came off multiple times or often ended up being cockeyed on the horses head after they rolled or rubbed.  We added a strap (black velcro) and it worked very well.

The last picture (blue mask) comes with a zipper and works very well.
