Hi
My guinea pig was fine for about three weeks, then developed a mild case of ringworm. I am following the vet recommendations and using a shampoo recommended by a reliable source, but I am having trouble finding information on decontamination. Most websites say top to bottom house cleaning including air filter changes, but my guinea pig lives in the basement (warm and safe with a dehumidifier running) and has been confined to her cage since the flare up started so I’m not sure if that’s overkill or not. No one else in the house has developed ringworm either. Hoping for some good advice, thanks a lot!
