NWI Chinchillas
Ok, so one of my friends runs a rat rescue, and has some pet chins as well. Well, apparently some rats of hers got infested with tropical rat mites. Her chin started pulling out his fur (like, pulling, as opposed to chewing) in an area on his body, and when she looked at it, she says the same tropical rat mites are on this chin. She contacted me asking what meds are safe for use in chinchillas to treat the mites.
But... as this would be the first I've heard of chins getting external parasites, I have no idea.
How should she go about treating this?
