Ticks

[Jenna-Bun]

Hi guys,
I was wandering what I should do if my rabbit gets a tick?
Thanks

Pluck it off with a pair of tweezers aka an eyebrow plucker. Also just curious does your rabbit have ticks?

No but I wanted to no just incase.

Since I feed fresh forage and they get a lot of garden time there are ticks now and then, most times unfortunatly where I alone can't do much about it safely, like on eye lids or on the nose. They disappear rather quick though, quicker than I would expect them to fall off, I have the suspicion they groom them off each other.

Never had any problem, well , actually my rabbits did not, I myself got borreliosis once.

I have a phobia of ticks, I went hiking once and one attached its self to me. After that experience never again am I going/will go hiking again.
