Hi everyone. I'm writing because I'm concerned about some type of bug I found in my ferret's cage. I believe they are eating the ferrets poop; I found them under the littler box with a bunch of litter (Yesterday's News) my ferrets decided to dig out and stash under there. I completely clean out the cage every week and scoop out the used letter 2 to 3 times daily. Yesterday was cleaning day and I took out the litter box and was cleaning off the plastic levels and ramps when my boyfriend noticed the litter at the bottom of the cage moving. I looked and saw about 10 little brownish insects, about a centimeter long and oval (like centipedes), burrowing through the litter on the bottom of the cage. I checked in the littler box, and I couldn't find any bugs in there. Does anyone know what these bugs are? If my fuzzies have eaten one or two before I noticed them, will they be hurt by them? Stools and everything look normal, and they've been eating and drinking fine. I already checked the fuzzies for bites and the bedding/food for bugs and I haven't found anything. I cleaned EVERY part of the cage yesterday because I'm not sure if they lay eggs or what. Needless to say, I'll be checking under the litter box every time I scoop to make sure there are no bugs. Thanks for your help in advance, Heather, Arwen, and Gizmo [Posted in FML issue 4550]
