I had the misfortune of holding a snake last night that had mites on it. I was at a herpetology meeting of all places.

I panic'd the minute I saw the mites crawling on my hand and didn't know what to do when I went home to avoid contaminating my collection.

I went directly to my basement - stripped down and bagged every piece of clothing, shoes, socks - everything went into a garbage bag and put outside for the night. I showered compleley and then proceeded to spray the interior of my car with PAM because I was afraid some may have gotten in my car from my clothing.

Not a fun night. I am hoping that I did everything possible to ensure that my collection was not affected.

Do you all think my collection will be spared??

Thanks
