Harvest mites

Not a question but watch out for harvest mites which are bad this year. We've never had them before but yesterday my big boy was limping badly his feet were so sore. A quick trip to the vet and he's fine now. Orangey itchy lumps in areas which have sparse hair are the most likely places to find them.
