🌧Billy Connolly got it spot on when he said, "I hate all those weathermen, too, who tell you that rain is bad weather. There's no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothing, so get yourself a sexy raincoat and live a little."🌧

💦However, it is important that your sexy raincoat is waterproof!
At Robinson’s Rug Wash, we wash and reproof all equestrian jackets, and EQUIDRY (and equivalent) items, to help keep you warm and dry this winter.

✨We pride ourselves in our attention to detail, customer service and quick turnaround, but it is always so nice when we receive messages like this.

"Hi Al, I just wanted to say a big thank you to you and your team. I’d read the reviews that the rugs came back looking like new, but I wasn’t expecting them to be as good as they are!

The RRW team couldn’t have been any more helpful. The whole process was made so easy, from coming and collecting my dirty rugs, and a week later returning them looking better than I ever remember them! They are super clean, professionally repaired and brilliantly packaged for easy storage.

I was really surprised at the value. A 5* service and I would highly recommend your services to everyone."

👏🏼 The team at Robinsons Rug Wash have excelled this week, turning around over 200 rugs for washing, repairing and reproofing!
🧽 That’s a lot of washing loads!

⭐️⭐️Thankfully we have doubled our washing and drying capacity, which has meant that our turnaround time remains minimal. If you need your rugs getting ready for winter please just get in in touch with us, or if you have used our services then we would really appreciate you leaving a review: https://www.facebook.com/RobinsonRugWash/reviews

❗️🪰Fly control tips🪰❗️
😳Is it just us, or does there seem to be more flies than ever around at the moment?
⤵Here are our top tips for you:

🪰 If the flies are persistent in your horse’s field then consider investing in a fly rug – these are not just for horses with sweet itch and are a relatively low-cost investment.

🐴 Use fly spray twice a day, every day and again after exercise – even when the flies are not out as this helps to build up a base line barrier smell.
Always check the ingredients of your fly sprays if you are competing under rules.

🆘 Remember to spray yourself before you ride, or invest in a citronella band - otherwise, you will become a feast for the flies instead of your horse!

⚠️ Some people swear they help to deter the flies by feeding garlic – but always stick to the recommended feeding amount as studies have indicated that feeding garlic in excess can contribute to anemia, and other studies have shown that it has little benefit as a deterrent.

💧 If you have lots of flies around your stables then the Outdoor Fly Traps (using water) offer an effective and safe way to catch flies around your horses.

🩶 For those horses who are plagued by flies when ridden, have a look at the exercise fly rugs, which offer good protection against flies whilst you ride.

❗️If you are using a fly rug, it is important to keep them clean. We have a quick turnaround on our rugs, and also offer a repair service as well, so if you need yours washed in a hurry please just get in touch.

ℹ️And whilst we are worrying about the flies, it is a great time to send us your winter rugs to get them washed, repaired and reproofed ready for autumn.

😁Getting feedback from our clients is so important to us, thank you to Louise for leaving this review after using our services for the first time.⭐️

💙“Having tried a number of rug wash companies over the years, I sent a batch of winter rugs to Robinson’s Rug Wash.
The rugs were returned in a timely manner, clean and re-proofed, neatly folded and packed, and ready to be put away until they are needed again.
The payment process was easy and straightforward and there are lots of convenient drop off/pick up points. I will definitely use RRW again and highly recommend them".
