I figured that today would be a good day to do an update on my bp, Flicker. I haven't seen any mites even dead ones for the past several days, and Flicker hasn't soaked in his water bowl since I started treating him. In the evenings, he pokes his head out of his hide like he's saying, "It's ok dad the mites are gone. I want a rat now please." Also, after the first hated bath, he seems to be enjoying baths now and will just cruise around in circles for 5-10 minutes. I feel like this is good enrichment for him so I think I will continue with the baths periodically.
