    Bleach Emergency
    I was doing laundry (which is in the kitchen) and dropped the whole gallon of bleach on the floor - I immediatly opened all the windows and put fans at the windows to clear the house - but now I'm super worried about the snoots. I have asthma so it's making me feel tight chested. I tossed the corn in her transport bin and moved her and the python as far from the kitchen as possible, but the whole house smells like bleach.

    I don't have a door on the bedroom so I can't block them off. are the fumes as bad as skin contact? It's all over my hands so I don't want to handle them either - I'm in a bit of a panic

    ***It was dilute beach 2 cup / gal***

    The slithers should be ok. I would set up a fan in the room they are in to draw in outside air as it's not hot out, or so cool outside today that their heaters can't keep up proper temps.

    I'd do everything I could to open windows & air out...it's very irritating for snakes too.

    Yeah thanks - I got all the windows open and all the fans in the house going. Everyone seems fine so far. Just glad it wasn't in the same room as the snakes or on the carpet :/

    Even with all the windows open the house temps have only come up to 76 - which is a degree above what I keep it anyway

    I would imagine anything with lungs and the smaller the lungs the more the impact. Is that right or am I way off lol.
