How does the Boett Blanket work to prevent Sweet Itch?
Per Boett USA: because of its unique fabric (not a mesh that midges might bite through) and clever design, the Blanket stops midges biting the skin, preventing the allergic reaction called Sweet Itch.
Specs:
Lightweight but incredibly strong
Fully breathable — will not cause overheating
Gnats and insects cannot bite through thanks to special weaving technique
NOT impregnated with insecticide or midge repellent — avoiding undesirable side effects of chemicals
Can be machine-washed and tumble-dried
Easily repaired if accidentally torn
How quickly will I see results?
Per Boett: as soon as the blanket is fitted, midges can no longer bite the areas most prone to Sweet Itch. However, it normally takes 7 to 21 days for dead and damaged skin cells (the cause of the extreme itchiness) to be re-absorbed. During that time the horse will continue to show some itchiness.
Should I apply repellent or insecticide under the blanket?
Per Boett: No. Per the company: "It is much better to have a clean skin. The Blanket will do its job very effectively and will prevent midge bites on every part that it covers."
What colors are available?
Per Boett USA: available in three colors — light grey, chestnut, and dark brown.
