I don't think I'll have to use the heavier products thusfar. So far I have put the two in a coating of olive oil for a day and a half, got that off using some mild dish soap, and after taking them out the ball python is still completely clear and I am not finding any on the boa either. Regardless I am still going to do spot checking on them daily and keep up with the treatment for a month or more if needed.

It is an interesting experience and I feel a bit like a snake groomer with as many soaks as they've had in the past couple of days. Both are still very active but also not making my life too difficult. The ball python is a lot more tolerant while the boa is...well, being a good sport while also very clearly not liking he tub/soaks heheh.Gonna have to watch out for her. She's already got a personality too big for her little body. Gosh I forogt how much of a sucker I am for boidae
