How can you tell if your hedgehog has mites?

 

[Gnarly]

Bring your hedgehog to a vet and they will do a skin scraping. Sometimes they might need to scrap the skin more than once, because mites can be missed the first time around.

If your hedgehog is missing excessive quills, has very dry skin or seems to scratch a lot, mites are suspect.
