¡Hola! Tenemos algunos hablantes de español, aunque estoy usando Google Translate, ¡así que espero que esto esté bien! Si su pájaro tiene picazón o tiene secreción nasal, asegurarse de que su jaula esté limpia y libre de polvo puede ayudar. También puede usar una toallita para limpiar y eliminar la suciedad de su nariz. Si observa enrojecimiento o heridas, o si su nariz que moquea tiene color verde o amarillo, puede ser una infección que debe ser examinada por un veterinario. Tratar los ácaros con un aerosol de ácaros de la tienda también puede ayudar con la picazón.
