Mite treatments and prevention

[bcr229]

Also a question about PAM if anyone is still viewing. Would it be ok to feed him on the treated paper towels/substrate once it is completely dry or should I feed him in a separate enclosure until the mites are gone.
should I also treat his water dish? Or will soaking it in water be enough to get rid of any eggs/mites in there? I'm cautious to use chemicals on something he drinks out of.

I've never had a problem with feeding on treated paper but if you want to swap it all out the day before feeding day it wouldn't hurt.

I just run the water bowls through the dishwasher, as mites and eggs die in seconds at temps over 135*F so the hot water kills them.
