    You're still bringing your snake into where it originally got mites. Unnecessary stress.

    Yeahhhh, I would have ponied up the few $'s for some PAM and done it myself. I havent encountered a mite issue, yet I still keep the stuff in my handy dandy 'snake fix it tub o stuff'.

    * side note* I arez a happy snake momma, Cheddar ate his first meal with me today. The switch to live went without a hitch.

    I would rather bring her back where she is from and where she can get treatment FIRST time ever I have experienced mites, so I would not know where to look. As I talked to tommy they said she was INFESTED so her tank is now cleaned everything boiled and baked to death, still waiting for her to come home my mother inlaw is PISSED and well I am a very passive person... so she is coming with me when I go back and possibly getting something fixed I don't think I will be buying my rats there now....


    Rats can carry mites Correct? Cause she seemed fine until she ate than she baithed ALL NIGHT and than I took her out and saw the mites

    I looked up this Scales n Tails and they sure do have a lot of bad reviews.
    Forgot to tell ya no Xeno (had broken ribs that healed when i got him which I honestly wish If I had more experince with snakes I would have loved to keep him and hopefully get him to adult, but with andy not saying much I am thinking Xeno didn't survive long I will be checking in on Zari (my female snake) Tomorrow I will ask how the baby is doing if he is ok.


    and now he didnt have mites I am thinking Someone sold her to them and she had them, None of the other snakes in the store had mites o.O

    As far as hides go, I use shoe boxes. It gives them total enclosure and security. They all love them.

    You're bringing her back to get treatment where she probably got the mites.

    And the mites on rats aren't snake mites. Mites are animal specific. As far as I know.

    Considering that mites can't really be killed when ON the snake, since it's terrifically possible to poison your snake by treating it directly, it's best to simply treat the enclosure with PAM or an equivalent. It's incredibly effective with little risk to your snake when applied correctly. Anything applied directly to the snake stands too much of a risk of poisoning.

    Maybe you should just not have a snake.

    Mites are hard to control with a collection, but you have one snake. Why don't you treat it before rushing out and getting another one
