Its a matter of human safety rather than the well being of our reptiles. The salmonella issue in rodents comes down to a matter of cleanliness. When humans are affected in this way by a "Food" product its the FDAs job to step in and do something about it. All of the major rodent producers are subjected to testing and personally, yes, I want to know when one of these tests come back with something that may make me ill. now most of us have enough common sense not to handle our thawed mice or rats then put our fingers in our mouth, as with chicken, but if there was truly 17 possible cases linked to these rodents then.... thank you FDA you've done your job! We all have the right to know if we are being exposed to something like this, whether it be from tomatoes, broccoli, or frozen rodents.
