I have seen it adversly effect usually jungle/forest type vine snakes, and burrowers, rather than more arid species. but it was not uniform as same species individuals reacted differently (or not at all)...Symptoms involving throat puffing, gasping and/or seizures. the most extreme reaction was with a baby Columbian Boa (14" and very healthy) that went into imediate convulsions and died in less than a minute. it's definitly a reaction to the dust because other specimens that were introduced to pre-misted tanks did fine...Frank
