The mites prefer areas with less hair and therefore the ears, elbows, and the face are the first areas affected, but large areas of the body may be infected in severe cases. Affected areas become hairless, thickened and inflamed and yellow crusty sores may also be seen. This is partly due to effect of the mites themselves and partly due to the trauma that your dog causes by rubbing and scratching the affected area.

It is important that you seek veterinary advice as soon as you notice any of the symptoms to ensure an appropriate pet medication is prescribed.

Aludex is an effective treatment for mange and is diluted to be used as a wash, although it cannot be used on pregnant or lactating bitches, Chihuahuas or cats and be aware that it is also toxic to horses.

It is commonly believed that dogs’ contract mange from foxes and are often blamed for spreading the disease among the dog population. However it is very rare for foxes to spread mange to dogs as dogs do not come into close enough contact with foxes for the mites to spread. Therefore mange is usually passed on by infected dogs. However the mites can also survive in the environment without the need of a host and consequently your dog can also pick it up whilst out on walks. You can prevent this by using an effective treatment such as Advocate for dogs.

The mites can also infect humans; however the lesions they cause are usually small and infestation does not usually occur as the mites cannot reproduce in human skin.
