QuestionMy black guinea pig has some small yellowish/whitish wiggly things on her
back/rump area. I can see them moving along the hair. Could this be lice,
mites or fleas? They are pretty small, but I can see them with just my eye.
She isn't seeming to be bothered at all, but is scratching a little more than
usual. Is it necessary to bring her to the vet?
AnswerHello,
It is unnecessary to take her to the vets unless of course you are very worried. I would suggest giving her a bath with some insecticidal shampoo or you can buy a spray that gets rid of fleas, mites or lice, this depends on how old she is.
Best wishes
