Where are you from? Here are some links to help find a herp vet near you...

Taking on WC adults without access to a decent herp vet is playing a bit with fire in my opinion. You might get a few that have been treated or are fine, but you are going to get some with problems, that's pretty much a given.

I called a vet yesterday and they said that they are going to verify if Front Line can be used with reptiles and they are going to call back to let me know if it works.

Does anyone has ever hear or used this products with BP's?

[Brimstone111888]

Considering those products work through oils on the skin I would say no they don't. Why a VET needs to check that is beyond me.

[Elvyra's Keeper]

Yeah, that just sounds stupid. Maybe it was the receptionist checking with the vet. (For your snake's sake, I hope it was)

Thanks for your reply's but like I said before there is no herp vet in my area so I just call one that is on my way home. I live in Puerto Rico and I can't get Prevent-a-Mite anywhere around here and it can't be ship here because it is spary and the mail don't ship it.

I read about Front Line and it comes in spray and it is used for dogs, cats and birds.
Does anyone have ever used it on BP's? Or anyone have a better idea?

I read in the forums that you can use Vaseline. Can it be used in the eyes of the snake?

Thanks
