Hi All,
 
About the essential oils, there are essential oils that are really great when treating piggies with mites or fungus. I can really recommend them. I'm talking about the gorgeous guinea shampoos (http://www.gorgeousguineas.com/ sorry to sound like commercial ;-) ). I get a dutch version from a lady who runs a shelter in the netherlands (desiree from knoevel, she is specialised in taking care of guinea pigs with OD, and my yaya is a OD-pig). It is true that you shouldnt use the oils on really young pigs or pregnant sows, but besides that, they are very safe. I know vedra is a knowledgable vet, but so is desiree and her vet.(i'm not sure if she is talking about gorgeous guineas shampoo, but i just wanted to let you guys know that at least their products are not dangerous). Opinions can differ and i really trust desiree and her vet. Desiree has used the product on many of her pigs and i know her personally and i'm sure she would never recommend something that would hurt a guinea pig.
Carole, i also dont want to start a discussion. I hope you dont mind me commenting on this. But i wanted to provide a little bit of extra information, because i dont want people to be scared away from GGshampoos because most other products that are used for treatment of mites or fungus are very irritating for their skins and this is not the case with GGshampoos. 
 
Grtz
Janneke
