Does anyone know if I can use anti-parasite on my bunny as a preventative measure? Since we’re in the garden so much at the moment, we let him free roam when we are watching him and then put him in his playpen when we are gardening or eating etc. He enjoys digging in the flower beds, and since we have recently had or garden re-done the beds mainly just consist of soil and a few plants. I’m a little worried that he could pick up some kind of parasite whilst he is playing so I ordered the beaphar anti-parasite spot on. Is this only for use as a treatment or could I just put some on him to stop him from potentially getting some kind of parasite in the future?
