It is a messy proposition, but you can smother the little buggers with petroleum jelly or shortening. You can at least get rid of the live bugs. As for their eggs, I don't know how to get rid of the nits.

Human Head Lice and Guinea Pig lice are two different types. Humans aren't affected by Guinea Pig Lice and Guinea Pigs are the same for Human Head Lice. You are perfectly safe to hold you guinea pig :)
Yes. They can get bugs, mites or fleas, that's if you keep them dirty or outside while it's Nat season! And never let them get cold! Or overheated! In summer bring a guinea pig's water bottle just in case!

You can use a pesticide dust for animals-- check your local farm store, TSC, Home Depot and Lowes also carry this. *Food Grade Diotamaceous Earth or D.E. is a wonderful multi-purpose, natural helper of chickens. -mix it with their feed to help prevent worms -dust them with it to prevent mites and lice -mix it in their bedding to kill and prevent mites and lice and fleas -mix with water to white wash coop walls that may be infested with mites or other critters -use to kill fire ants without putting poison in your grass where your chickens might get it I put a pile of D.E. on the ground in the coop and they take turns laying in it and sprinkling it all over their feathers. I also mix it in their food. Excellent discovery and a must have.

Caged birds with lice or mites will scratch a lot. Whether or not your parrot has lice or mites, it is wise to get a mite spray from the pet shop and spray it every couple of days. The spray does no harm if used properly.
