Best Flea & Mite Treatment For Rabbits in Surrey

Fleas are one of the most common external parasites in pets and are the cause of many skin problems. Fleas are tiny, dark brown insects that survive year-round in the UK and are common parasites affecting rabbits. They can be picked up from other animals or their environment, reproducing quickly and leading to infestations.

Fleas are also difficult to get rid of once they've infested your pet and their living environment. In fact, an adult flea can stay in its cocoon for up to 6 months before it emerges, so eradicating these parasites can take a long time!

How Fleas Affect Rabbits

Constant itching and scratching
Skin allergies, scabs, and irritation
Risk of anaemia due to blood loss
Transmission of other parasites, such as tapeworms

Can Rabbits Get Fleas From Hay?

Yes, while hay itself does not typically carry fleas, it can definitely harbor flea eggs, larvae, or pupae if it has been stored in areas where infested animals, such as wild rabbits or rodents, have been present. Fleas are more commonly transmitted through direct contact with other animals or contaminated environments, but bringing in untreated hay from outside could introduce fleas into your rabbit’s living space.
