Well guys and gals, it's 24 hours later and all is going well. I treated, as I said last night, with TOD and sat back and watched the mites just drop dead
Both Bredls and the blue tongues definately had mites on them, the Coastals have shown no sign of them yet and I am not sure now about the little Maccies as #2 just shed and it was a very bad shed but that may have been due to low humidity as it shed during 24 hours without water because of the TOD. The male Bredl shed today today and while it was a bit scrappy it wasn't really too bad. I will keep you all informed as time goes on
Now.....
This part is gonna hurt replace all B.C with white paper towelling during the treatment period to monitor success.
I have indeed replaced all the BC, (I only use it on Lizards), with white paper, (reversed desk pad sheets), and replace these regularly, every time I replace them there are less dead mites on them
B.C. will probably not go back in any enclosure as staples and paper clips I can live with but mites??? Hehehe only joking with all you B.C. lovers out there
. I sprayed all enclosures with TOD, about a 1-2 second spray per cage and sprayed the room for 2-3 seconds.
Unfortunately I do not have the luxury yet of being able to spray the whole room as I keep fish in there as well and don't trust the TOD with them. I did however go out and pick up 4 cans of TOD from Brian at the Herp Shop today so I am armed and dangerous as far as those crawling little buggas are concerned
Thanks for all the support guys and gals, it's great to know you guys are out there for us all in our time of need
