I've taken a look at the two you suggested Ria but I don't think they really look like either of them. The one it probably looks like most is a Springtail?! I have never heard of them before but my Dad looked at one under a microscope and it looked very similar. No idea how and why they would be in Loki's cage though!
I've got his new cage ready but because he can't have any of his things in there I worry he may be unhappy. It's only for a very short time though whilst I deep clean his.
Is it safe to disinfect wood incase it gets chewed? And lastly, I'm sure I've asked this before, but what is the best length of time to freeze food etc?
Thanks again!
