hello, friends! [MITES, PAM, DEATH, and the gang]

tttaylorrr, As a new guy here, Thank You for posting your experience, and I'm sorry for the loss of your snakes.

That is a terrible thing to go through, but by posting your experience, I as well as others can be aware of the dangers of PAM.


I believe one of the salt based products you mentioned is this.....

I am going thru the "mite thing" right now, with 2 baby snakes I read about PAM and it was a great mite eliminator but the use of it could be really hard on the snakes.

I chose to use the Frontline, that Bogertophis and you mentioned, and was thinking about adding PAM if needed but will now avoid it.

hello new friend!

yes, Natural Chemistry is the one. i hope i never have to use it, but if i ever have mites again that is what i will be using exclusively.

again: PAM works. it is the best at what it does. i still have my can of it. but knowing that there are less risky products out there, it's just not worth the risk to me anymore. honestly i keep it around as a "just in case".

im going to strongly urge you or anyone not to use two separate products. i have no evidence to support this, but it is one of my tinfoil-hat type theories as to why my snakes passed away: possibly mixing two strong products.

good luck with your snakes! you'll have much better luck than me, i know it.
