Mites :(

I rarely use a spray bottle as I keep mine in tubs and the water bowls keep the humidity pretty high. I have had snakes spill their water and had moisture all though the tubs (after allowing proper drying time after PAM application) and never once had a snake start acting strangely (neurologically) or otherwise. I'm talking within 24 hours of treatment they've spilled their water.

Thank you everyone for your continued input. We did end up treating our snakes with Natural Chemistry Reptile Spray and the enclosures with PAM. I'm knocking on wood here, but I'm hopeful that we caught it early, because after several days of being on paper towels, there has been no evidence of mites on any other snake, in any other enclosure, or in any of the other water dishes. 🤞
