    Handling snake with URI

    Hey guys, i need some help, this is gonna be a short one.

    My python has a mild respiratory infection, what steps can I take to make sure I don’t pass it to my 3 other snakes?

    I know about quarantining and whatnot. I’m specifically asking about keeping my hands clean. Will hand sanitizer do the trick?

    Thanks in advance

    Handle/clean/medicate him last every day, then shower immediately.

    Hand-washing with warm soapy water & plenty of scrubbing action for at least a minute+ will do far more than hand sanitizer.

    And see above post also.
