    I will bet its YOU?
    I have had mites ride home from an expo on me.
    If you have someone that you have visited that has mites OR a location that could have reptiles and mites, then you just might be the carrier.
    Its either that or you are not following up a second treatment soon enough.
    I use the Natural Chemistry the couple times I needed it and it works great. I also use it to treat QT just to be safe.
    Exactly!

    Thanks Pit

    Re: mites

    My most recent bp had mites, still does poor baby.

    But what helped TREMENDOUSLY was a mix of betadine, peroxide and water.

    Why not use actual mite products to kill them?

    I didn't have any on hand, but we had betadine for my Dad's lab he said I could use some of.

    PAM and lice spray are very effective in getting rid of mites. However I find that the best way to get rid of these pests is to be thorough..
