Went to a local reptile expo today and ended up picking up some new things (no snakes) - two new hides, a back up CHE, and a cool java wood branch. The hides I already tossed in the dishwasher, the CHE is stored in the closet (can't really disinfect that), but I left the wood in the car, I just need to figure out how to disinfect / ensure no free loaders come in with it. Will a good soak in really hot water and dilute clorhex (followed by a few days in fresh water to rinse) be enough to ensure noting infectious remains?
Unfortunately there were several vendors that had snakes with obvious mites, Respiratory infections, and mouth rot...so making sure nothing came home with me is important. None of the items I got were near the actual snakes, but I want to make extra sure. (already have clothes in washer and showered lol). On a side note - even if it is sad I did get a good look at several cases of RI and mites first hand and the symptoms are VERY obvious, so I guess I learned something new
