Frequently
Asked Questions
Q. Can I wash my flyveil?
A. Yes you can wash your Flyveils by Design flyveil in the washing
machine on a cold or warm cycle.
Q. Does it matter if the adjustable
buckle is on the 'on' or 'off' side of the horse?
A. No, the buckle should only be adjusted once, the first time you
fit the flyveil to the horse, and should not be used to take the
flyveil on or off the horse.
Q. Your flyveil has left a
mark on my horse's poll from the strap, what's going on?
A. The flyveil is done up too tight, or is too small for the horse.
Loosen the adjustable strap and the velcro. The flyveil does not
need to be skin tight to keep the flies out.
Q. Why do you use a 'stiffer'
edging on your flyveils?
A. The edging gives your flyveil its shape and helps to hold the
flyveil out away from the horse's eyes. In summer the mesh of the
flyveil becomes softer with heat, without a firmer edging the flyveil
droops towards the horse's eyes.
Q. Do the different colour
flyveils spook horses?
A. Our research has not found anything conclusive, whether horses
can see in colour or in greyscale. Different colour flyveils certainly
do not spook our own horses.
Q. We have a really bad fly
problem even at night, can I leave my flyveil on 24hrs a day?
A. That is personal preference and something you should trial. We
have heard of many instances where they have been worn sucessfully
24/7.
Q. Your flyveil is too big
on my horse?
A. Use the adjustable strap and velrco to give the flyveil a better
fit for your horse.
Q. Are any of your flyveils
imported?
A. No, all of our flyeils are handmade by us using the best materials
bought within Australia. The product is 110% Australian.
Q. Do you supply direct to
the public?
A. No, using the link below (Retailers) you can see that you can
buy, or order, a Flyveils by Design flyeil at a large number (200+)
of saddlery stores including, SADDLEWORLD & HORSELAND stores
Australia wide.
Q. Does your flyveils block
out any UV light?
A. YES, infact over 70% of the UV light is blocked out from the
use of our flyveils. This has been tested and certified by the same
department that rates the UV blockout on things like Sunglasses
and Window tinting.
Q. Do light coloured flyveils
block out less UV light than darker colours?
A. Yes, but there is only 0.5% difference. White lets in 0.5% more
UV light than Black, so as you can see there is very little difference
between colours when it comes to UV protection.
Q. Do other flyveils have UV
Protection?
A. No, only a FLYVEILS BY DESIGN flyveil has been tested and certified
to blockout 70%+ of UV light. Don't take the risk, buy only a FLYVEILS
BY DESIGN product. |
