Mite treatments and prevention

[bcr229]

Update: the reptile relief came in early so I followed the instructions on the bottle which were to spray directly onto the reptile and lightly on anything that could hold mites. I didn't handle him, I just sprayed it on top of him twice. I also did 2-3 sprays around the enclosure. His water bowl is in the dishwasher right now because I didn't want to hit that with any chemicals he might drink. This is just to give him some relief before the PAM comes in and I can demite the tank completely. Should I spray him again with the reptile relief when I completely clean out the tank?

IIRC the directions state to use the Reptile Relief every three days.

Also I like to spray it onto a white paper towel, then use that to wipe the snake, let the snake crawl on it, get the product up under their chin, etc. You get more even coverage, you don't get the stuff in their eyes, and most snakes hate getting sprayed.
