5:19 PM Mosquitoes and Rabbits |
Did you know that mosquitoes can bother your rabbit? If your rabbit is leaving outdoors, keep an eye out for mosquitoes. Depending on the province that you live in, there could be certain diseases that are transmitted from mosquitoes to rabbits. Talk to your vet about your rabbit’s risk for disease and bites from mosquitoes. There may be vaccinations available to protect your rabbit. On your own, you can help protect your rabbit by having your yard treated for mosquitoes. Make sure it’s a treatment that is safe for animals. Hang citronella candles in places where your rabbit can’t reach. These can deter mosquitoes. Some rabbit owners will use a mosquito net to place over the rabbit’s hutch. If you do this, make sure your rabbit cannot get to the net as he may get tangled or hurt. For more tips, talk with your London, ON veterinary clinic. |
