Proper use of PAM?

[blueberrypancakes]

I got my PAM today! Sooo... the directions look pretty simple. I just spray it on the substrate with Jackson and I nowhere near the tank, let it air out for a good while, and then all is back to normal? I got the impression it might be more complicated than that... He's on paper towel, and I change it fairly often- should I treat it every time I change it? Any tips on good usage? Thanks!!

That's about it, you will want to sray before the paper towel goes in, Pam leaves a residue, and the mites will be dead in no time. Use sparingly a little goes a long way

sounds good! the can says to spray the substrate, though, so are you suggesting that I spray the bare tank and then put the paper towel back in, or spray the paper towel before putting it in the tank? Sorry, I don't mean to sound like an idiot- I just read that improper usage can cause some pretty nasty results and i don't wanna screw it up. (I am known to be over cautious...)

If you're using paper towel, you don't have to worry about it. Treat the bare tub and put new paper towel in when the tub or tank is totally dry. Then put the snake back in...
