Hi can anyone advise me as the best way to treat four week old kids who have mites round their ears.
Not sure if it is o ok to use mite powder on them

Many thanks in advance

I would have thought it may be best to talk to the vet what treatment is most appropriate for such young kids. Are you sure it's mites and not sunburn?

Hi Anke

Thanks for the reply, was going to talk to the vet in the morning just wondered what I could do in the meantime. They are scratching their ears and are starting to get little bald patches, one has small crusty areas round the base of ear opening,thought at first he had caught it on something but noticed tonight a couple of other kids with very small bald patches.
