Horseware Ireland Amigo CamoFly Rug

The brand new Horseware Amigo CamoFly range is a fresh approach to fly protection harnessing print and colour technology.

The monochromatic pattern may be a simple way to protect horses by helping to deter flies from landing on their body. The layered black lines on a grey background act to create an optical illusion in the eye of a fly. It breaks up the shape of the horse, so insects struggle to identify it as a target.

How does it work?

• Research surrounding how flies react to zebras and their stripes suggest that the monochrome stripes confuse flies acting as a natural deterrent to the insect.
• Based on this principle, we have created a bespoke monochromatic pattern, specifically designed to help camouflage horses from pesky bugs and flies.
• The unique print is inspired by the pattern of a fly’s wing. The layered black lines on a grey background acts to create an optical illusion in the eye of a fly.
• The pattern breaks up the shape of the horse. Insects struggle to identify the horse as a target and cannot figure out where to land.
