The Barkers...... I do know them they are about a 45 minute drive from me.
I have had mites in my collection once after visiting an expo. Sadly I didn't even purchase any animals but I did handle several.
It took a while to get rid of them but Natures Chemistry did the trick and I have never had or seen them again in my snake room and have never had to re-treat either.
I do treat every animal I purchase that goes into a quarantine rack that is a different room of the house. I have also helped people with RI and mite cases here locally.
To each their own I guess but they are not that hard to avoid with proper protocol.
