horses can move their ears independently of each other and therefore perceive multiple sources of noise simultaneously? Flies and gnats around the ears are therefore particularly annoying and can significantly impair your horse's attention.

What is a fly bonnet used for when riding?

A fly bonnet protects your horse's sensitive ears from flies, mosquitoes, and other insects. This means it is less distracted by buzzing or crawling and can concentrate better on your aids.

Can a fly bonnet reduce head tossing and restlessness?

Yes, provided that insects in the ear area are the cause. The close-knit material keeps them away and can therefore reduce ear flicking, head shaking, and restlessness while riding.

How should a fly bonnet fit correctly?

It should fit snugly against the shape of the head without pulling on the ears or significantly restricting their movement. It must lie flat and without folds under the bridle so that no pressure points are created.

Can a fly bonnet be worn in warm weather?

Yes, the breathable material supports air circulation and allows heat and moisture to escape. However, the bonnet should be removed after riding and dried if necessary.

Is the fly bonnet suitable for competitions?

Yes, although you should check before you start whether the design complies with the requirements of the respective test and the organizer.

How is the fly bonnet cleaned?

It is machine washable. It is best to use a laundry bag and a gentle wash cycle. Also, check the care label and allow the bonnet to dry completely afterwards.
