Baby red squirrels-diseases?
Hi! I recently took in 4 red squirrel babies who are about 5 weeks old, all 4 look very healthy and are pretty active. I love taking care of them but I am 15 weeks pregnant, should I find someone else to take them in? I’m worried about diseases I can contract from them that may harm my baby. I’ve been scratched a few times on accident while feeding them but I always wash my hands and wash it out with peroxide. Is disease something I should be concerned about? I’m in NY if that matters.
Also, how do I treat their fleas?
