    better to assume?

    my crested gecko has mites or bugs in its cage, which is right next to my bp. should i assume she has mites in or bugs in there too and change the bedding and all that jazzy stuff? i just ordered PAM today so im sure it won't be here until next week. in the meantime do i clean w/ water or what?

    with mites, it's always a good idea to do a full cleaning of the cage and replace substrate with newspaper/paper towels. Get your PAM and use it according to the instructions and you should be good to go.
