  I have a little garden planted with a bunch of vegetables for my bun, and today I noticed that some of the leaves are damaged and after some researching it looks like it’s from a pest called leafminers. I picked off all the damaged leaves but I’m sure there are still more of the bugs on the plants. Will it harm my rabbit to keep feeding her the vegetables? Or do they all need thrown out if they have this bug? TIA

  As long as no chemicals have been used, the damaged leaves are not harmful. I imagine you already wash everything before feeding. Washing would remove any larvae, etc. on the leaves. Accidental ingestion of a larva or two isn’t harmful though either.
