WILD HORSE INSECT CONTROL COOLMESH COMBO - Permethrin Impregnated Fabric
The Cool Mesh Combo is the lightest and coolest option with PERMETHRIN IMPREGNATED FABRIC.
The design has lycra which reduces friction on the mane and minimises rubbing as well as velcro connectors at the neck to attach your Fly Mask.
Help protect your horse from mosquitos, ticks, sandflies, midges and most biting flies and fleas with a highly effective and convenient form of Insect protection. Effective against all Permethrin sensitive insects. These can be disease carrying insects that pose the greatest potential risk and discomfort to your horse.
WILD Horse uses a unique patented process that tightly bonds the fabric fibres with Permethrin – one of the most effective natural Insect Controls found in certain types of Chrysanthemum plants.
This ensures a long-lasting, odourless and colourless barrier against many common and disease carrying insects, unlike other products which can affect your horse’s sense of smell.
Insects are NOT controlled nor repelled by normal horse rugs and these can offer harbour for some insect species while they feed.
Permethrin impregnated fabrics work on insects in two different ways. Some insects like mosquitoes, midges & sandflies are repelled by the fabric and won’t come near it. Others are controlled by coming into contact.
Due to the binding process minimal amounts of the insect control enter your horse or their environment and the treatment does not wash off in rain or perspiration. A unique process that tightly bonds insect protection deep into the fabric fibres of our products. Unlike sprayed on treatments, the insect control remains effective for the expected lifetime of the product.
The technology has been extensively tested and proven to protect your horse from a variety of disease-carrying insects.
Minimal amounts of the insect control enter your horse or his environment. It does not wash off with rain or perspiration.
The insect protection is effective and odourless.
Wild Horse's unique treatment is a great alternative to other temporary Insect repellent products that are sprayed directly onto the skin, last for only a matter of hours, wash off with perspiration or water and which also have the potential for overuse.
After extensive testing, using this process to bind the Permethrin to the fabric is more costly but the results for long term effectiveness is far better than spray on applications used in other treated rugs. The treatment is EPA approved and after 25 detergent washes and 6 months of weather exposure, tests show there is still approximately 92% of treatment still in the fabric.
