Quarantine question on Ball pythons

[lance]

Well of course you all know I have a QT tank for any BP I purchase my question that I forgot to ask is should I regardless of weather I see it or not spray the tank with a product to kill mites and treat the ball python as well to be safe or could this be harmful to do if mites or parasites are not present?

thanks for your continual help all

Wont hurt anything, it's always good to take preventaive measures.

As long as the product is either Provent-A-Mite or Black Knight, and it's used according to instructions, it's a good idea.

DON'T use anything not approved for use with reptiles.

yes...VERY good idea. provent a mite. it isnt only intended for killing mites that are already there...its also used for prevention. hence...the name. lol. use as directed.
