Since I use a fair amount of it, I've done some research into how to use it safely, and making sure it is dry on a surface is really important, since then it stays there and works its magic. Based on what I read in journal articles, it is very safe and effective for snake use when used judiciously.
    BTW, I know that many have used PAM safely on snakes- & that it's the ones with bad outcomes for whatever reason that we tend to hear about here & in other forums.

    It wasn't even an option back when I had (all of) 2 snakes that came with mites, & since then, I've managed to avoid them totally. What do you think of using NEXGARD instead, as was recently reported to be effective, safe & easier?
