Does anyone's horse use ear plugs when ridden?

[pipper]

I posted yesterday, but didnt make it clear, so some people thought i meant human ear plugs!
so I'm trying again today...

Does any one use ear plugs when riding/competing? if so which ones do you think are best?If not...
Has anyone tried them and found them to be useless or keep falling out, or cant get them in?

i would be interested in hearing your experiences please as Im thinking of trying them on a spooky pony, but have never heard of anyone's experiences....
thanks

I have a mare who is very distracted by the smallest noise and i couldnt get ear plugs to work eaither so i bought a pair of the ear fly net things that go under the bridle and just over the ears but i bought some with thicker meterial so it numbed the noises arround her. you can find them out there somewere (i got myn at olympia) and it really worked, also you could try puting the ear plugs/ cotton wool under as may hold it all in.

I ride mine in earplugs 90% of the time derby house made them while I waited sheepskin ones she has, £5 fit really nice as well.

Glad you found something that works, i have found now as my mare has got older i dont need anything anymore.
