Default marten & weasel bugs
Does anyone know specifically what the small, brown, jumping bugs found on weasels and martens are? Just curious. Thanks

I toss my fur in a bag and spray with raid and let thaw out. Kills the fleas

I don't think they are fleas. They have kind of a hard shell and are tough to kill by squishing.
