How do Cheyletiella mites spread from rabbit to rabbit via bedding?

Studies have shown that ear mites can live for about 72 hours without a host. so by the time the rabbit is treatedd it should not get reinfected. Of course it would be better to keep the rabbit somewhere else for about 72 hrs so that the mites which are not on the rabbit will die off.

The best treatment for mites in Rabbits is Ivermectin drops, you might be able to find them over the counter in pet shops, otherwise at the vet's. regarding the bedding i would recommend throwing away everything you can and washing very well in high temperature everything you cannot.

Cheyletiela mites are often difficult to see with the naked eye, they can be treated either with ivermectin spot ons or Revolution spot ons, both are prescription medications that you will need to get from your vet.

Binky may be suffering from mites, as may your other rabbit. Patchy fur loss with flaking along the rabbit's back is typical for the mite Cheyletiella parasitovorax, Your veterinarian may examine a sticky tape preparation or skin scraping under the microscope for the presence of mites, however, might sometimes not find any, even though they are present on the rabbit. Mites are usually eradicated easily. Classic treatment is with injectable or oral ivermectin, or a selamectin spot on given in treatments two weeks apart. As mites live in the environment of your rabbit, it is essential to thoroughly clean your rabbit's cage and disinfect areas after each treatment to control reinfestation, since fur and dander in the environment may contain mite eggs.

Sometimes mites can be transmitted by commercial store-bought food or hay. You will need to take your rabbit to a veterinarian for an exam and proper diagnosis. The vet can then inject your rabbit with an acaricide that will get rid of the mites.

Usually if a pet is going to have an ectoparasite (parasite that lives on the pet's skin/fur), it will be on the pet itself and not out in the environment/on the floor. I would recommend getting a fine tooth comb and using it to look over your rabbit carefully. Based on the photo you provided it is possible this is a tiny baby cockroach (if you google search baby roaches you may find some similar looking bugs). Mites would be too small to see with the naked eye and lice have a different body shape. If you don't feel you can look through your rabbit's fur carefully/closely enough, a vet exam is never a bad idea!
