It's been 30 days since the vet found a mite on bitey, I changed her substrate to white paper towels, 2 plastic hides, glass water dish big enough for her to fit in
Gave her a treatment of frontline, and checked her with a 20x lighted magnifier..... Ugh......
Just got back from the vet today, she did multiple tape tests and looked at her through the microscope/magnifier she has
She found NO mites,
And I haven't seen Bitey soaking in her water dish, have seen no mites on her paper towels, or in the water either.
So I have to believe I'm safe to clean her tank again, switch her back to normal substrate, giver her her climbing log back and plastic plants
and integrate her into the snake room.
Or should I give it a little more time? I DO NOT want a mite breakout with the rest of them. (that really worries me) But I would like to get Bitey in the temp/humidity controlled room.
Thoughts?
And Bean goes for her checkup, mite check on Dec 03, so she will not be added to the snake room till after that.
room.
