I found a turtle covered in chiggers what is the best way to get them off without hurting him?

Thank you I’ll see what I can do.
Thank you for caring about this wild reptile! People like you are refreshing. 🙂
I would get the turtle to an exotics vet. There are a number of things you can use but if applied improperly they can be seriously harmful. It’s better to get the vet involved to ensure you’re using the right stuff in the right way. If you don’t want to go this route, please contact a wildlife rehabber (your local SPCA should have phone numbers for you).
