net relief nose nets

[carrie160]

What do people think to those nose nets from Equilibrium called net relief?

My horse itches her nose a lot at this time of the year (i think its the pollen!) and i've heard hese are supposed to help. So before i go out and buy one i would like to hear what people think to them and whether they help or not

My girlie has a full one that goes over her ears. She's fine with it, but the other mare, in the feild, has one also and she won't keep it on for all the tea in china. We don't know if she gets it off, or whether it's the gelding that pulls it off!

If it's the nose rubbing you're concerned about, try Aloe Vera gel, so that if your horse rubs too much, the skin on the nose won't get irritated as much with friction burns!

The full mask won't stop the nose rubbing though, as I've gone to the feild in the evening, and mine has the nose bit stuck up in the air!!:eek:

i was thinking of getting one that you can ride with. One of those ones that just go over the nose, they attach to the noseband when you ride them......heres a link to a picture

She started to headshake in April and so I tried one, and I have to say that it helped a lot. She has stopped headshaking now, so I think that it was the April Pollen (Apparently grass pollen) and she is not allergic to anything at the mo, but all I know is that they worked for us.

Do you know anyone that you could try one from first?
