fecking hate it to mate never a season goes by with out outbrakes of it does it lay dorment in the ground then?
As i understand it its carried by fleas and mosquitos. I guess the fleas stay in the buries and when the rabbits stop living out at the end of the summer and use the buries more they get infected, same deal with mozzies, bite an infected rabbit and pass it on. It seems like human colds, sometimes you're snotty for a couple days then its gone other times it puts you in bed for a week! Some years the rabbits get a mild version, a few with swollen eyes about etc and other years,
