Looking for advice on treating mites.. everything seems so contradictory:
- Use provent a mite, don't spray snake or get it on snake.
- Use provent a mite, rub on snake with paper towel.
- "Provent a mite killed my ball python!"
- Put sevin-5 dust in enclosure, mixed with bedding.
- Put sevin-5 dust under bedding.
- "Sevin-5 dust will poison your ball python!"
- Use something less toxic than provent a mite.
- Spray the snake with it.
- Bathe the snake in it.
- Treat the hides.
- Throw the hides away.
- Take the water bowl out.
- Throw the water bowl away.
Can someone set the record straight? I've had him a month, and anytime I put a bowl of water in his tank, he soaks for hours and hours, and a few black specs are in the water afterwards. He still seems happy and is eating, but I don't want it to get worse.
What should I do?
