First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Fleas [Advice] Dust lightly with Johnson’s small animal insecticidal pump action spray (or other spray, containing pyrethrums specifically for cage birds) – available at pet shops. Do not use any flea spray or powders for cats and dogs especially Frontline™ from a vet, these will either kill the hedgehog or make it very ill (read below under ticks for reasons)Hedgehog Fleas only live on hedgehogs, rarely jump onto cats/dogs or other pets, and almost never bite humans So DON’T panic. Note: it is almost impossible to get the powder now, the pump action spray works well. [Description]

Output: Small brownish-red insects walking or jumping through spines.

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Fly eggs [Advice] Remove as many as possible with tweezers and a soft toothbrush from open areas. Flush out ears with pet ear drops or warm salt water. Flush eyes with plain warm water. If a bad infestation wash hedgehog in a bowl of warm water with Savlon, paying particular attention to the belly fur and the skirt. Wrap the hedgehog in a towel and keep warm until dry. Take to the vet for injection of IVOMECTIN 0.02ml per KG bodyweight. You can spray with F10 Germicidal wound spray, which in many cases will stop fly eggs hatching [Description]

Output: Tiny clumps of yellow/white eggs like grains of rice, mainly in ears, round skirt, eyes, neck and belly or on open wounds or sores

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Maggots [Advice] Once fly eggs have hatched into maggots, it is often too late for the hedgehog and it will need VERY URGENT Veterinary attention. You can use the same basic treatment as for fly eggs but get to a VET or Wildlife Rescue centre IMMEDIATELY You can flush the wound out with warm salt water or spray with F10 Germicidal wound spray, which in many cases will remove maggots and stop fly eggs hatching and can be used as a first aid measure until you can get to the vet or Rescue Centre. Do not use flour, pure salt or any other old wives tale remedy [Description]

Output: White or creamy wriggling worm like creatures, seen on hedgehogs with wounds or that are cold and have grown from the fly eggs

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Ticks [Advice] Be very careful using Frontline™ Flea spray from vets. Never spray it onto the hedgehog Even though the substance is safe for hedgehogs in very small doses, it is too easy to overdose and kill the hedgehog. The alcohol in the pump causes severe breathing problems when absorbed through the skin or breathed in and kills hedgehogs. We find the safest way to use it is: spray into a small medicine cup about ½ ml to 1 ml, depending on how many ticks to remove and then use a pipette or a cotton wool bud to drop or wipe a tiny drop directly onto each of the ticks avoiding the hedgehogs skin.This prevents the hog inhaling the alcohol from the spray and reduces the danger of causing problems or killing the hedgehog through overdose of Fipronil ( the substance inside Frontline) . We only use Frontline in “severe” cases when there are too many tiny cobblestone ticks to safely remove using tweezers or a tick remover. They need to be twisted out carefully in an anticlockwise direction. If you are not sure don’t try yourself, contact a vet, experienced carer or wildlife rescue centre for help and advice Do not try to pull off with tweezers, frequently the head of the tick is left behind and causes an infection [Description]

Output: White/grey beads with brown legs, head buried in skin sucking blood.Often found around the ears, Skirt and on the tail, but can be anywhere on the body. More than 10 or 12 ticks on a hedgehog will cause anaemia and will weaken a hedgehog severely. More than 30 ticks and the hedgehog has a poor chance of surviving See Pictures here of a hedgehog with over 100 ticks on it

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Mites [Advice] The traditional treatment is to take to the vet for three or four IVOMECTIN injections, one week apart. They need 0.02ml per KG bodyweight. You can now buy Ivermectin drops that are safe and easy to use. Brush off loose skin with toothbrush and oil lightly as above.We find that in mild to medium cases Tea Tree cream from a good health food shop or chemist works as well, if not better than traditional veterinary remedies. (see Hedgehog Research Pages for details) [Description]

Output: Tiny white or brown dots moving on body or fur, they cause MANGE. The hog’s spines and fur fall out, starting on the face. Crusty lumps form on the skin, skin flakes, spines look pussy at base and bent, may have bleeding scabs.

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Ringworm [Advice] This is a quick rundown of the basic treatment. Soften scabs with oil, use almond oil, baby oil, cooking oil, mild olive oil ( No oils with strong smells). Brush off loose skin with toothbrush. Bathe in IMAVEROL solution every 3 or 4 days, for 4 baths.Also use one of the following over the counter anti fungals on the affected areas daily, Daktarin, Canestan, Tinaderm or Scholl athletes foot cream. We find that in many cases Tea Tree cream from a good health food shop or chemist works as well, if not better than traditional veterinary remedies. (see Hedgehog Research Pages for details)Using TEA TREE CREAM or an antifungal cream on face and ears is better for the hog than trying to wash it with Imaverol.We have found that using tea tree cream on the ears and face on alternate days, then dripping Imaverol onto the infected sites works as well as a full bath.Almost all hogs with severe mite infestation will have ringworm. It is always wise to treat for both. [Description]

Output: Very similar symptoms to Mange. The hog’s spines and fur fall out, starting on the face. Crusty lumps form on the skin, skin flakes, spines look pussy at base and bent, may have bleeding scabs

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Dehydration [Advice] Give LECTADE (from vet) or rehydrating fluid immediately, 6-15 ml every hour until recovery. Give Hartmanns by sub-cutaneous injection every 12 hours (from Vet). DO NOT GIVE HARTMANNS TO COLD HEDGEHOGS. Keep quiet and warm. This is the main cause of death to hedgehogs in summer when little water is available. Give Lectade to any hedgehog suffering from shock, enteritis or diarrhoea. [Description]

Output: Animal lying on its side in hot weather, sunken eyes, grey to white gums, panting, pads pale, when skin is pinched it ‘tents’. If walking sometimes wobbles violently, has ‘neck’ that looks thin with narrow hindquarters, sits hunched with dull eyes.

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Hypothermia [Advice] Put on heat source immediately. Hot water bottle or heat pad (a warm room or near a radiator is NOT ENOUGH). Let it warm up for half an hour then give Lectade until it shows an interest. KEEP WARM and quiet. Feed light diet as soon as awake and recovering, keep on Lectade for two days. [Description]

Output: Hog lies uncurled in cold weather, pads pale, eyes closed, barely breathing, stomach very cold, gums pale.

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Pneumonia [Advice] Keep warm with direct heat source. Do not let air around the hog get too hot or dry (i.e. don’t keep the hog in a hot kitchen). Take to the vet immediately for antibiotic treatment. We normally use Baytril given for a minimum of 10 days at a dose of 0.8ml per KG body weight twice daily either orally or by subcutaneous injection. If no improvement after the first couple of days then change to Synulox.Give BISOLVON expectorate on food, if eating, or in fluids if not eating.Give Lectade as above if not eating but do not give too much at once as it may choke, let it breathe between sips. A drop of OLBAS oil (chemist) on a cloth near the nose may help breathing, do not rub on the hog.One of the primary causes of Pneumonia is Lungworms (see below) [Description]

Output: Hog breathes heavily with wheezing and bubbly cough, runny nose, may lie on side or flat on stomach.

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Lungworm [Advice] Some species of internal worms are resistant to Panacur. We find Telmin (Mebendazole) is an efficient safe wormer for lungworms and we give Telmin daily for 5 days. break for 14 days and repeat for a further 5 days. The hedgehog also needs Antibiotics at the same time and that is normally Baytril 2.5% given for a minimum of 10 days at a dose of 0.8ml per KG body weight twice daily either oral or by subcutaneous injection Warning: Many vets suggest using Levamisole injection for lungworms. We have found that in many cases this extremely strong substance kills the hedgehog at the same time (It kills all the worms so quickly that a weak or poorly hedgehog cannot cope with the toxins resulting from the dead worms). Levamisole is used very safely by many vets & rescue centres on stronger hogs, be cautious with weak ones. Quite a few Rescue centres are now going back to Telmin, because several species of internal parasites appear to becoming resistant to Levamisole. Quite often it we need to give a course of Levamisole, followed by a course of Telmin to clear up all the worms. [Description]

Output: Hog develops ‘smokers cough’ often heard at night or when hog is sleeping. Fails to put on weight despite eating well. Cough sometimes starts after a few days in the warmth.

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Worms [Advice] We always worm all hedgehogs as soon as they come in with PANACUR ( Fenbendazole). Our regular regime is to give Panacur for 5 days. Nothing for 2 days, Then give Telmin(Mebendazole) for 5 days 2 weeks later repeat the entire course.We are at present trying a slightly different routine with Panacur on day 1, Telmin on day 2 and continue to alternate for 10 days. Repeat in 2 weeksAlways give Antibiotics when initially worming hedgehogs. The usual antibiotic is Baytril 2.5% at a dose of 0.8ml per KG bodyweight given twice daily. (oral or by subcutaneous injection)Worms in Hedgehogs are a direct result of its diet. They are transmitted to the hedgehog from earthworms, slugs and snails. You can cut down on the risk by supplementing its food in your garden (see Feeding page.) Some Vets suggest Ivermectin by injection for worms. This doesn’t work on all of the species of worms that normally infest hedgehogs [Description]

Output: Fails to put on weight despite eating. No external signs of worms but general debility; hog looks thin and rangy, sometimes blood in droppings.

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Diarrhoea [Advice] Rehydrate immediately with Lectade 6-15ml. Keep warm, give light diet; scrambled egg or chicken. NEVER GIVE COWS MILK TO HOGS. May be caused by incorrect diet or infection, or by worms. If change of diet or de-worming doesn’t clear it up quickly, then get to vet as soon as possible for treatment. Antibiotics can sometimes make diarrhoea worse, but also can help tremendously.We always use a probiotic supplement in the hog’s food or water, to replenish the hog’s natural intestinal flora, which helps it digest food properly. [Description]

Output: Droppings become jellified or very loose, greenish, putty coloured or dark sometimes with streaks of blood.

First Aid and medical hints and tips » Epping Forest Hedgehog Rescue


Input: [Problem] Injuries [Advice] WARNING: ALL INJURIES must go to a vet for antibiotic treatment and full examination. First get your equipment ready. A clean sheet to place the hog on, a good light, a bowl of water with antiseptic in, a bowl of plain water for eyes, cotton wool balls, cotton buds, tweezers, nail scissors, wound powder and antiseptic cream. We find that brushing a hog on the back with a soft toothbrush frequently encourages them to uncurl enough to be examined and treated. If these methods don’t work, then you have no alternative apart from going to the vet where he can be given a light anaesthetic. It is impossible to fully examine a hedgehog without anaesthetising it. We have seen so many hedgehogs over the years that have suffered and often died in agony because they were not examined properly & thoroughly in the first place. Swab with antiseptic any wounds, breaks or fractures as gently as possible. Only cut any spines or hair to expose wounds on the body if absolutely necessary. Spines take a long time to regrow and the hog is very vulnerable during this time. Swab with cotton wool balls and flush out if necessary with a syringe. Remove all maggots and fly eggs at this stage. Try to pick off any grass, dirt etc that has entered the wound. Once you think the wound is completely clean, spray with Veterycin Wound care spray . If there are any injuries to the eyes (e.g. by strimmers) use only plain warm water and syringe gently. Injured hogs are nearly always suffering from shock and a course of Lectade is advisable for a couple of days. Some may need Hartmanns solution injected. If in any doubt please phone for help immediately.. [Description]

Output: If animal is screaming or crying – get it to the vet IMMEDIATELY without treating it yourself.Otherwise you may want to start treatment yourself if they are very minor injuries

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] person [Stage] pre-erythrocytic schizogonous cycle (asexual) [Description] The sporozoites are carried in the blood to the person’s liver and enter liver parenchyma cells. The sporozoite grows through feeding on the cell contents and changes to a schizont which is the form that undergoes multiple division, termed schizogony. This process of schizogony in the liver cell produces 2000-40000 separate tiny individuals termed merozoites. A merozoite then either infects another liver cell and repeats the cycle or it passes out of the liver into the blood and enters the erythrocyte schizogonous cycle. The period in the liver lasts 6-16 days. [Place]

Output: liver

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] person [Stage] erythrocyte schizogonous cycle (asexual) [Description] A merozoite enters an erythrocyte (red blood cell) and grows through feeding on the cell contents. The individual is transformed into a schizont that undergoes the process of schizogony to produce 6-24 merozoites (much less than the number produced in the liver). The cycle is usually repeated a number of times so that the number of infected erythrocytes in the blood stream increases enormously. The duration of the cycle is the duration between successive bouts of fever in the victim, each bout correlating with the simultaneous release of the merozoites from the cells. This is because the release stimulates the person’s immune system to produce cytokines which cause fever. Erythrocytes are killed by being infected and the remains are broken down in the spleen, a reason why the spleen is enlarged in people with malaria. [Place]

Output: blood stream

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] person [Stage] gametocyte formation [Description] Merozoites eventually stop multiplying and transform into male and female individuals termed gametocytes. [Place]

Output: blood stream

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] both [Stage] biting [Description] The mosquito bites the person, injecting saliva and sucking up blood containing the gametocytes. Any other Plasmodium stages such as merozoites are digested in the mosquito’s gut but the gametocytes survive. [Place]

Output: skin

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] mosquito [Stage] gamete formation [Description] Female gametocytes transform into macrogametes, a process that includes the reduction of the chromosomes to the haploid number. The nucleus of the male gametocyte divides up into several elongate protoplasmic processes that radiate from the surface of the male gametocyte. Each of these processes becomes a male gamete termed a microgamete which is equivalent to a mammalian spermatozoon. The process by which the microgametes break away from the surface of the male gametocyte is termed exflagellation. [Place]

Output: gut

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] mosquito [Stage] fertilisation [Description] A microgamete fertilizes a macrogamete to form a zygote. [Place]

Output: gut

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] mosquito [Stage] ookinete formation [Description] The zygote transforms into a motile ookinete which penetrates the wall of the midgut and settles under the membrane separating the midgut from the haemocoel where it forms into a non-motile oocyst. [Place]

Output: gut

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] mosquito [Stage] Sporogony [Description] The oocyst grows and its contents divides into about 10000 elongate sporozoites. This process does not occur unless temperatures are from 16 to 33 ºC. The sporozoites burst out of the oocyst into the haemocoel and many of them find there way to the salivary glands. [Place]

Output: exterior of midgut

Plasmodium (the genus of pathogens causing malaria)


Input: [Host] both [Stage] biting [Description] The cycle is repeated by the mosquito biting another person and injecting the infected saliva. [Place]

Output: skin of person
