Just how contagious are ear mites? If ferrets that came in with them run
around a few hours first before diagnosis and treatment are they likely
dropping the little bugs all over? The infestation was not noticable
externally, only when I took swabs. Also, are they species specific or are
the same that live in dogs or cats?
Thanks,
