My 9 month old Bredl has mites. I have bought permoxin and TOD. The TOD hasn't arrived in the post yet so only have the permoxin.
My current plan is to treat her with the permoxin and quarantine her in a treated click clack in a different room to her enclosure, bathing her everyday in luke warm water with a tiny bit of dishwashing liquid to drown the mites on her. Just wondering, is it best to bath the snake with the permoxin (and for how long) or spray? And to what dilution? I've heard 5 ml permoxin to 200 ml water. Do I avoid spraying her face even though she has mites on it?
I was also thinking of setting off a flea bomb in the room where she is normally kept, leaving the enclosure open with everything still in it (except her obviously). Then once the TOD arrives I will remove everything from her enclosure and use the TOD to clean it out and will allow it to air out. Will keep her quarantined for a week.
I will then repeat the permoxin treatment 11 days after first treatment.
Is there any part of this plan that I should change? Any other tips?
Cheers!!
