Anyone notice gnat/fruit fly sort of bugs with reptichip?

[Bogertophis]

I often notice small gnat type of bugs when using reptichip? Anyone know how to control them?

"gnat type"...you mean tiny flying bugs? (mites do not fly)

If gnats, mostly an annoyance: I've heard of some people 'baking' substrate (in low temp. oven) to kill any such bugs, but that's not too practical if you use a lot
of substrate for a larger cage or multiple cages. If you happen to live where it's really hot & dry (desert?) you can put the sun to work: put substrate in clean metal
trash can out in the sun (with lid on) & let it bake a while...gnats won't live thru that.

Obviously, you don't want to use any sort of pesticide to kill them as it would kill or make your snake sick too.
