How do you get rid of maggots on a lambs tail?
If you notice maggots on your rabbit, bring him to a vet immediately. This is an emergency, and without the vet your rabbit will die from shock or infection.If you feel comfortable doing first aid on your rabbit, and your rabbit seems okay for now (is calm and responsive; not in shock, or completely depressed and unresponsive, or freaking out and unmanageable), then before you leave for the vet's you can try to remove the maggots and clean the wounds. Here's how:Remove the maggots: Be very, very careful! Do not burst or crush the maggots, or break their bodies. Maggots and other parasites are filled with toxins that can harm your bunny. Using tweezers, very gently pull the maggots out of the skin or off the fur or wherever they are. Then you can flush them down the drain, or burn them. (Don't just throw them in the trash: they might crawl out again.) If the maggots are deep in the skin, try covering the opening with a warm cloth for a few moments -- this might bring them up to the surface.If you're having trouble removing the maggots, and you're afraid you might crush them as you try to remove them, then just leave them in and let the vet take care of it!Clean the wounds: Flush the wounds (use a big oral syringe or something like that), and then cover them with non-stick bandage pads, and then wrap the pads with self-adhesive bandage tape (but do not let the self-adhesive bandage touch the wounds or open skin, because it'll stick). For the flush, use sterile saline solution. Or, you can use watered-down povidone iodine (Betadine is the common brand name, water it down to an iced tea colour), and then with lukewarm water. If you don't have either of these, just use lots of lukewarm water.
