Description:

Clumps of what look like tiny grains of rice. These can be found on damp areas or the body, mainly around the skirt, eyes, neck, Anus, belly, under armpits and in the ears. They can also be seen on sores and open wounds.

Treatment:

There are several ways to get rid of fly eggs.
You can use tweezers if the fly eggs are among the spines.
You can also use a nit comb or an old Tooth Brush.
If the fly eggs are among the soft fur then you can also clip some of the fur off. Tea Tree oil or clove leaf oil may help.
Then flush out the ears with pet ear drops. This can also be done with warm salt water.
When you have done that, flush out the eyes with plain warm water. If the infestation it bad though, wash the Hedgehog in a bowl of warm water with Savlon in it.
Please pay particular attention to the skirt and the fur.
Then wrap the Hedgehog in an old towel. Keep the Hedgehog in the towel until it is dry. The Hedgehog will need to see a Vet as soon as possible for an injection of IVOMEC 0.02ml per KG body weight.
