image.webp I no this isn't much to go on but .... If you look close on my dinkys back there is a small black dot ! Now that small black thing is in different places of her and I think I seen it on my others , is this anything or not really ?
 
It's difficult to see as have got black dots all over my screen but it could be hay mites, dandruff from a fungal issue or skin debris from mange mites. Is she scratching at all?
 
They all scratch well I mean itch , but I got told they always scratching ? Can I use something to treat even if there isn't something ?
 
You can do preventative treatment, but I would get a proper diganosis by a vet who can treat with the correct strength product.
 
Yea it does , that's why I said not much to go on , but that why I explain they have them throughout hair and seen on others , not just today been while now , no loss of hair or noticeable scabs , I'll just use a preventive treatment , what's best one?
 
A lot of people use Xeno 450 or Easimec. I however don't like spot on and they are given oral Ivermectin at the clinic I go to instead.
 
What kind of bedding are they on, megazorb leaves small black specks on my lot x
