    P.A.M. ?'s

    so i bought some PAM the other day and i sprayed down the tank and i was wondering how long i should wait before putting my bp back in and if i kills all the mites. i had a problem with mites a week or 2 ago and most of them are gone. how do i get rid of the mites that are by the pits on my bp?

    You should let the PAM completely dry before putting your snake back in the enclosure. Never apply the PAM directly on your snake. One application should last 30 days.

    Once the PAM is dry and you put your snake and his water bowl back into the cage you won't need to worry about the mites that may still be on him. The PAM will kill them and also take care of any that hatch in the next 30 days.

    Yes follow the instructions on the Provent-a-Mite, and you're good to go. Stuff can't be beat

    Whenever I see the term PAM I am always concerned someone is going to go to the supermarket and buy cooking PAM not Provent a Mite. You know someone has had to have done it
