Yes, got her roughly a month ago. She was cleaned and treated when she came in and put into quarantine. Never noticed the mites until today though.

The carpet comment, ugggghhhhhh... Vacuum will be on overdrive now. lol

I have her on unprinted newspaper and in the rack all they have is a water bowl. She is in quarantine with several other new additions so I was concerned about them spreading from tub to tub. Not sure how good they are at moving through a rack... across aluminum, over tubs and through PVC...

I'm working nights right now so I'm not going to be able to get out and get PAM until the weekend, so in the interim I am going to do the best I can with keeping her and her enclosure clean.
