Re: ticks/beetles on royals/balls
This isnt really recomended as I'm sure in the intervening decades someone has created a better solution.
But we used to go buy "vapona" pest control strip ,cut a couple of inches off it and place it inside a plastic box with holes stabbed in the side, take out the water bowl and leave it in for 24 hours. we used to have to repeat a couple fo times so it probably isn't much good to you.
Only thing I can suggest is asking a vet - they should know pretty much everything out there and if its a reptile vet what is safe for your snake.
Oh and if anyone is wondering why I posted it saying I dont recomend it it was in case someone else suggested it. :P
This was "back in the day" when there weren't as many alternatives.Thank god for progress.
