    Provent a mite/feeding question

    Can i feed my BP in the same cage that has provent a mite treated substrate? pretty paranoid about the whole neurological damage thing that PAM can do, I always let the substrate dry for about an hour just to make sure fumes are gone but I wasn't sure if whatever Permethrin residue that is killin mites can contaminate feeders that come in contact with it before she eats.

    I haven't had any issues and I've used PAM to kill mite infestations twice. As far as bedding goes, you should switch to paper towels during your mite treatment to easily identify the mites and give them no place to hide from the PAM.
