Riding Hats: a step towards protecting

If you think it is good to wear a hat or that it causes headaches, now there are a variety of hats of different sizes, shapes and colors that can be comfortable, attractive and smart. And never think you have enough experience to walk without a hat. There are records of accidents occurred to pilots who have experience of 25-30 years who did not wear hats while driving.

The hats are usually made of hard shells, which contain both light and strong materials such as fiberglass, carbon fiber, etc. This depends on the brand you buy. The hat size is normally given at home. A range available sizes from child to adult, and measured two centimeters and inches. standard sizes ranging from 49 to 65 cm or 6-8 inches.

When you buy a riding hat:

1. Make sure the hat fits your head properly. You must provide good ventilation too. It should not be too loose or too tight. When you use it, the hat should come down to the eyebrows, covering the entire front. At the same time should not be exposed to the back his head. When the head tilts or moves, do not toss back and forth or side to side.

2. If you have long hair, get a riding hat who has a ponytail port. This helps avoid filling the hair inside the hat and that is very tight.

3. You can find all types of stamp of approval on his hat. Get a hat to ensure safety. Trying to save money by getting a cheap hat can cost you your life. Similarly, do not go to hats used.

Fly Spray Horses

Fly Spray Horses
Fly spray for horses can be safely used for rabbits?

I have a rabbit who lives in a hut outside, and while his cage is cleaned 1-2 times a week, such as flies and bugs seem to follow him (no pun intended). He is litter box trained and try to keep his cage as clean as possible, but as long as there is no single pill out there think the flies simply do not give up. He has developed some scabs under his ears that I assume are due to the itching or irritation of insects. My question is, would it be a safe option for spraying fly spray diluted (formulated for horses) around his cabin / A little in your ears? Or is it too risky? If so, what are some of repellents flight safety for use in proximity w / a rabbit? Thanks for any answers!

No, not safe. Rabbits are very sensitive to chemicals. fly traps outside the cage, natural predatory insects that kill flies and maintenance of the cage scrupulously clean (like every day in summer when there are flies, not once or twice a week) are the best measures. Or, of course, you can bring your rabbit to live inside. They live, on average, twice as long as they remain inside due to a variety of factors, including insect activity.
