I'm personally super careful when using any human products on or near my snake. I have never had to use neosporin on her before, and I'm personally allergic, so I don't even have it in my home. Bedadine is good, my mom owned a ranch, she said if you use bedadine, water it down so it looks like super weak tea. That stuff is very strong. We used it on horses, and it was sometimes too strong for them.
