A ball python does not feed on crickets that are loose in the cage with the insectiside. So this is out of context. We are talking about monitors, where we commonly leave living food in the cage.

I would not and have not and will not treat an animal for what it doesn't "need" to be treated for. Needless treating or proventitive treatments were from a day long ago when decent husbandry did not exsist. Cheers
