What do you all do to treat for this? Got a few squeakers to work in my loft as outcrosses and they were unfortunately covered in them. Keeping them in a separate cage until I can get this squared away. I dipped and soaked each of them in a borax bath, and when they dried I sprayed their rumps and under their wings with a livestock permethrin spray (less than 1%).
I was thinking of doing the bathing each day for a few more days, but not sure.
Also heard that Ivermectin drops on the back of the neck work. Anybody try that, or try a pyrethrin based drop like that made for ear mites in dogs? Not sure if the drops are even necessary after spraying them with the permethrin....
