First, I would like to say, I feel for ya! It sucks big time, but you can win.

I had them bad until I took the snake out and soaked him wile I cleaned the cage with diluted bleach solution inside and out. After it dried I wiped it down with clean water. After it dried I sprayed down the inside with reptile relief and wiped the snake with the same stuff in a dry container. After the cage dries completely, put a clean beach towel down and your snake in and NOTHING else. I found if you put the water in right away, the snake would take a bath and rinse the Rep Relief off. He’ll be just fine for a day or two. Clean the whole room and spray with Rep Relief around cages. Treat ALL cages.

In one week repeat. I have a spare towel ready (Ross $3, and it soaks up urine and stuff better than news print). I did this for three weeks and repeated it every 30 days for two months. I do it now every 4 to 5 weeks. It’s not hard. Be anal!

It’s important that you do NOT put snakes into a wet cage! The fumes can kill.

Good luck!
