Then again bugs are bugs, I use bird protector canisters for my rat rack. It's essentially a flea/mite/lice collar in a hocky puck sized canister. You hang or set it on the cage and it repels/kills bugs before they can lay eggs and start an infestation. Like putting a flea collar on a cat but easier.




edit: I've never had an infestation, but one lady I got some rats from had cat fleas which were all over her rats till she hung one of these.
I also rescued a batch of rats with lice recently and haven't seen any nits or itching, course I also treated with lice shampoo and extra cleaning.
i used to use those bird-protector things, but 8-in-1 hasn't been able to cross the US to Canada border for about 4 or 5 months.
