I am so sick of this crapola. I was using the Reptile Relief, as it was the only thing at my friend's store a few months back.Well, I am buying Prevent-a-Mite online somewhere as soon as I post this.. just a vent. I am so sick of this.. but I am getting this treated ASAP. I did what I could for now; stripped down the cages, used paper towels as substrate (I was doing that anyway.) Any other tips? I was thinking of soaking everyone, but should I just wait until I get the PAM so I can do it right?

Jen,is it possible that you missed treating a area? When i had mites i used the reptile relief and they were gone.Do you treat the whole cage inside and out? I would treat them with what you have as a temporarily break from them is better on the snakes.Good luck
