Is it okay if my rabbit's food has tiny bugs in them?

Question

I keep my rabbit's food in the our basement and after a couple of days im seeing bugs in it ( only a little) but their tiny My rabbit is eating his food anyways is it bad for him

Answer 1

Our rabbit is in the apartment and we kept the food in a plastic container but we realized today that it was infected with bugs. There weren't THAT many (or I think there wasn't that many; they were sort of hard to spot), they moved fast and there were white and brown bugs. *YUCK*. We're throwing the food away (such a waste...). We don't know how long the bugs have been in the food... Should I take our rabbit to the vet?

Answer 2

I have also found little tiny brown bugs in my rabbit's food and on the floor around the cage, they almost don't look like anything because they don't move much. I buy the forti-diet that is already prebagged. This is the first time that I have seen them in the food. we also seem to have more flies in our house, do these bugs turn into flies??  i have thrown the food out , washed everything really good and am waiting to see......
