I apologize, my phone spazzed out and posted before I could finish. As I was saying, I have a few questions about mites and would love if anyone could help me out!
-can you see any types of mites with the naked eye? If so what do they look like and where would I see them? (both on the rabbit & in her environment)
-can humans 'catch' mites? In other words, can we become infested and uncomfortable/itchy just like rabbits?
-what are the signs of mites?
if you have any other info on mites i would appreciate it SO much!!
thanks in advance

If you check inside the ears you can see little black dots in there ears. You can see them scratch a lot and also if you go through there fur very carefully you will probably be able to see them
You can have ear mites or fur mites, or both, I guess. In the ears, they'll be scratching alot and you'll probably see 'dirt' in their ears. In the fur, they may also scratch and will start losing hair. You'll also see bits of dandruff on the skin. It's really hard to see fur mites. You almost have a take a sample of the hair from the affected area and look at it under magnification to see them.
I don't think mites can/will live on humans.
