Yes, at the start you need to pick any varied bugs, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you had best really undergo with it once it has been selected

Bed bugs do nottransmitt disease, but if they are desperate, theymay try tobite your ferrets. Although ferrets have tough skin so that means they are not their first choice.

Wash their bedding every other day in hot hot water ( and yours too) if it’s only a minor infestation. If it’s bad, youllneed to get an exterminator. Then , you will set up a place for them to stay during the extermination and make sure there are no harmful chemicals in or around thrircage that could hurt them before u bring them back

Bed bugs can affect just about any pets. While they prefer humans, if one is not available as a host, they will feed off of an animal such as a ferret.
