Yes, like you, I only used a small piece, like an inch maybe? Then I suspended it in a wire cage from the cage top, & blocked most of the airflow so there was a space
for incoming fresh air, and a space for outflow (over the UTH where the air was naturally rising). If I remember right the initial treatment was about 12 hours max, &
the follow-up was 8 hours, but don't quote me, it's been many years. I don't miss having mites at all! I do know that I never saw any adverse reaction in the 2 snakes
I treated, but 2 isn't a big study group. There are very few things that I am willing to use a pesticide for: mites are one, wasps are the other, & both are rare occasions.
