words cant even express what i fell inside

Sorry for your loss. Suggest watch a lot of CIS NCIS so you can disposse of the body after using your COLT so you don't get busted.:rofl:

Just to clarify I'm truly sorry for your loss. The funny face at the end of my post is for the comment at the end not for your loss. It is heart breaking

I'm soo sorry for your losses :( It sounds like she burned cedar in your house. Did you happen to ask what she burned? I'm sure that wasn't on your mind, but it could have done damage to the rest of your collection. They may need vet care if that was the case.

wow!that really sucks,sorry for your loss

Wow, sorry for your loss. I hope she's at least very apologetic about the whole thing.

I've been smudging sage here for years with no problems, but I use only sage I have grown myself and open those windows as mentioned above. I agree that there might have been something mixed in with what she burned. Although, smudging because someone pooped isn't usually a reason to smudge. :rolleyes:

I am really sorry for your loss, feel beter soon bud :(

I'm sorry for your loss.

She should have called you BEFORE attempting anything unusual in your house to ask your opinion. That's all about respect for other people's property, live or not. And if she couldn't reach you, well she should have moved to a different part of the house and stay away from the poop smell.

Period. Don't mess with people's stuff.

The sentimental value of your snakes cannot be replaced because I'm sure they were very important to you, but I would have her pay for the financial loss. It's her fault, she should be responsible for it and help you replace what you lost if possible.

Just be careful...we all know how much our snakes mean to us and the financial loss is obviously very big as well as potential value of the offspring they could have produced...just remember that she was doing you a favor of watching the house and kid...doesnt sound like she did it in mean spirit...might be best to try to forgive and learn from it.

Sorry for the loss...I hope you can bounce back. Prayin for ya:).

I'm trying to imagine how smudging would kill snakes, and I'm having a lot of difficulty picturing it. Apart from completely filling the room with toxic smoke for a substantial time period, I think you should be looking into other possible causes.

Examples:
Is the heating device in the rack working properly? Is the thermostat working properly? If the thermostat malfunctioned, overheating may have resulted.

Was the window opened for the smudging? Was it left open? If so, was the outside temperature too high or too low for the snakes?

Were any aerosol chemicals used in the room?

Sorry to hear about your loss... that's tragic and losing a pet is never easy nonetheless 4. My absolute condolences.
