I've just been cleaning out Evo's indoor cage, and when I lifted the top off there was a little caterpillar crawling along the lip where the top of the cage meets the base. I'm 99.9% sure it was a caterpillar and not a maggot - was moving along in the looped way caterpillars do. Evo's fine.
Anyway, I just don't know what to do, I can only assume it came in on the hay. Should I throw away what I've got and get new stuff? Or is it a one off? I suppose it could have come in from outside - he lives right next to the back door. Seems a funny time of year for caterpillars though. He only has pre-bagged hay - we have Oxbow timothy, Excel herbage and the supermarket meadow hay open at the mo.
Any ideas?
