Reptile mites can be transfered from any reptile to any reptile.

Then whatever disease one reptile may have could be transfered via mites.


I have heard of dealers putting Sevin dust (I think thats how its spelled) on the floor in their quarrantine room and keeping enclosures away from each other so if they do get an animal with mites they would be killed as the crawled across the floor.

I have a different room and all new arrivals are put in tubs treated with PAM as if they already had mites. Luckily I have never had a problem.
