    Or,

    Buy Provent-a-mite, follow the directions and consider it the best $18 you ever spent. :gj:

    Hi,

    It's just one of those topics that make me nervous as heck.

    I always seem to internally re-phrase it as "Is this type of poison the same as this other type of poison as I plan to put it near my snake?"

    I'd just rather treat with a spot of dishsoap in 85f water to drown the mites on the snake while waiting for the P-A-M to arrive.

    Yeah i wouldn't risk using that stuff, could kill your snake. PAM is pricey, but well worth it, plus it works FAST!!
