Using PAM with larger collection...

PAM is fine for young hatchlings, I treated mine with it.

Have no clue what you saw on your snake's poop. If you use any type of shavings for bedding, it may have been wood mites I guess.

I only use newspaper for the BPs, so I don't think it was wood mites. Guess I'll just keep an eye on her, and hope the PAM takes care of any eggs that she's harboring (no sign of live mites on her)... weird.

Whew... took about 3 hours of hard work, but I'm done with the PAM treatments! Here's how I managed the whole process, for those who might face this situation in the future:

1. Treat "holding tubs" (10 total) with PAM; air out for 20-30 minutes.
2. Place first group of 10 snakes into holding tubs, and remove their enclosures.
3. Place all bowls & hides in bathtub with dish soap & water to soak.
4. Spray each tub lightly with PAM; air out.
5. Rinse hides & bowls.
6. Replace tubs (with fresh newspaper substrate) in rack, add hides and bowls, and finally the snake.
7. Remove second group of 10 snakes, and repeat steps 2-6.
8. Remove third group of 9 snakes, and repeat steps 2-6.
9. Pray to the gods of no mites, and hope to never see them again.

P.S. I did end up using the second bedroom for spraying, since I realized with the door closed & window open it was fine... especially after watching that Brian Gundy video, I see you don't need to be THAT paranoid about the fumes.
