Parasites such as mites, lice, fleas and flies can affect
your guinea pig. They can be transferred between
Guinea Pigs and through their bedding. If you notice
your Guinea Pig has a poor coat condition, is scratching
or biting its fur and causing sore patches then this
could indicate parasites. Apart from being very
uncomfortable, if left untreated your pet can become
unwell. It is important you contact us for advice if you
see any of these signs.
Treatment is available by administering an insecticide
or insect repellent specifically for rodents. We can advice
you of the best and safest product and if used as
a preventative measure, can keep your Guinea Pig free
from parasites.
