Has any one ever been told that most mite sprays will kill or harm elapids. i have been told that by several people, also that brands like top of decent , orange medic plus , repti-guard. is the cause of many deaths in elapids for treating mites.
I assumed that one of my elapids (red bellied black) had mites and treated it with repti-guard and it had a reaction to the chemicals, i was told by a person who owns elapids that f10 is the best way to kill mites with elapids, if any one could confirm this that would be great.
Dose any one treat there snakes for mites or quarantine there snake before they add to there collection?
Also the red bellied black had a made a full recovery and is looking great after some skin conditioning treatment. In the near future i will be very careful what i treat my reptiles with and consult the local reptile vet before applying any type of treatment. I done every thing by the book but at the end of it all i think it just comes down too different snakes all have different reactions to different treatments.
