    Mite treatment with healing incision
    I have a ball python who is 2 weeks out from a Prolapsed cloaca repair, and discovered the other day that he has mites :( I was instructed to use the "reptile spray" for topical treatment and I am wondering if it will interfere with the surgery site?
    Thanks

    Being 2 weeks out I bet you are in the clear. To be sure I would ask the vet who did the repair as they know what exactly had to be done and any body here is just taking a guess at the severity of the surgery that was done so we may guess wrong.

    If the wound is at all open I would be careful about applying it to the incision site. I can speak from experience when I say that Reptile Spray stings like hell. It's a salt solution that dehydrates the mites.
