Yeah. Drive to Georgia. buy a case and drive back to Florida. You can posses it. just not be able to buy it in Florida or have it sent to you if you live in Florida.

Yes I could drive to Georiga and back just to get some, and if I need to I will. But that takes an entire day and costs a good bit of money.

It is a restricted compound all over. In many places in Europe, and it is hard to get in Canada too. Elbow grease works you just have to keep at it, and be diligent.

Re: PAM no longer allowed in Florida.
I have the best solution of all. If all this stuff isnt allowed in Florida, MOVE. Get the heck out of that state while you can. Move somewhere awesome that doesnt care if you own snakes or buy PAM.

The wildlife marshal came over to the reptile shop today and was asking if we are still selling it.
Well that is all i know so far. How about any of you?
Looks like i better not come running into mites.
I googled, looking for info on this subject but found nothing about it on line. All references lead back to this website and quotes from this thread. I take it you live in Florida? Maybe you can find out something locally and let us know.
There were, however, many articles about the fight to ban inport/export of certain constrictors. Funny but from what I read it's turned into a debate between the Democrats and Republicans. The Democrats are in support of using the Lacy Act to ban 8 types of constrictors from inport/export into the USA. The Republican's are against the ban because the Lacy Act also bans merchants from trade across state lines so even US breeders wouldn't be able to sell or trade out of their perspective state. They say this will have a detramental effect on the economy.
I'm new to this site, and herping in general, so I'm just learning about this fight but after reading multiple articles on line it appears that it's growing into quite a controversy. I was encouraged, however, to find that an entire political party is standing behind us. IMO they are thinking too black and white.

Driving to Georgia, unless you live a couple hours from the border there, is stupid. I can guarantee that neither I nor any other Miami or South FL based snake keeper is going to drive a whole state just to buy PAM. But what's even stupider is the fact that they aren't allowing it. They are ************** ridiculous. Wow the law never ceases to amazes me with the bs rules & regulations they come up with. I hope all those who were part of this ban, have their homes infested by fleas, ticks, and mites even if they do not own pets. Damn idiots.

Are you saying you can't buy PAM in NY State while Pro Products ships this product out of Mahopac, NY.
