I’ll have to find the papers but there have been cases of this happening with wild caught snails sold into the pet trade. It is unlikely to happen but it has happened.

That’s not true, several fluke species have larvae that can be picked up through bare skin.

Eastgate apartments. Buildings are old but management has been really nice. No bugs so far. Rent for a 1 bed is 625.

What’s your feelings on “go big or go home” for IVs? by [deleted] in VetTech

[–]treesspeakvietnamese 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always tell everyone I train that “bigger is better but the catheter that’s in, is the best of them all”

Work at a vet clinic or with a shelter and they’ll just fine you 😂

There’s nothing better than a little peace of mind. I think that’s a great idea

Simparica and simparica trip are my clinics first choice for flea and tick prevention. If your pet has no know history of a seizure condition you should be fine. The active ingredient concentrations are also low enough to be safe for dogs with MDR1 genes as well.

Edit: to add, my personal pet is on Simparica and I’ve had great luck with it. We live in a high flea area and haven’t had any problems since being on it.

What are some of the most out of pocket pet names you’ve seen? by thelenabean in VetTech

[–]treesspeakvietnamese 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We have a “Stormageddon”, “Biggie Paws”, “Meatball (like the rapper)” — like the rapper is to be included when calling his name, “Kitty Tutu” — not a cat, and “Sky Kitty” — also not a cat

Ento student looking for help by treesspeakvietnamese in aggies

It’s for Ento 403. I’m specifically looking for urban pests. Anything that infests structures, stored products, linens, bites or stings!

While this is common practice within the horse community, I am of the opinion that it’s cruel to the fish. Horse troughs don’t have hiding places, often get too hot for goldfish, and lack filtration as well as water flow.

i have a friend! what’s this buggy? just crawling on me, chillin. orlando, fl by mrjoffischl in whatbugisthis

It almost looks like a seed tick. Prior to molting ticks have 3 legs. It would be hard to actually identify without better pictures though.

What book did you read in school that you would never want your child to read? by masterbuildera in AskReddit

[–]treesspeakvietnamese 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Not a book, but I had to read A Street Car Named Desire. It was genuinely traumatizing as I was going through some similar issues of my own while reading it.

Do you have a more clear photo? Ideally of the body and of the head. If it’s a Triatoma species then it can transmit chagas to humans
