Yes I am a sado

Fleas - can be controlled by sprinkling the hedgehog’s back with a powder used on birds to control lice and mites. Hedgehogs do not need their fleas. Hedgehog fleas are special to the hedgehog and do not normally live on any other animal. NEVER SPRAY HEDGEHOGS WITH DOG OR CAT FLEA SPRAYS AS THEY MAY BE TOXIC TO THE HEDGEHOG
