I'd rather pay $20. for the peace of mind, because it isn't the same. The only part that's the same is that .5%. That other 99.5% is not tested on snakes, those ingredients aren't listed on the can, and formulas change from time to time so even if your friend used it with no negative results it still might harm your snakes. These products are bedding sprays usually, and honestly a bedding spray made for horses or dogs isn't the same, it could contain aromatics like cedar and eucalyptus or any other ingredients harmful to snakes. It could have a delayed harmful effect like giving your snakes cancer, or other diseases later on, enough later for that effect to not be being associated with the spray yet since it isn't being used in any controlled way.

Also it's not OK to spray it in the room where snakes or humans may breathe it. It is only non-toxic in it's dried form. OK maybe that was my .03 cents.
