so i got some live feeders the other day...gave them the thump and fed 2 of my 6 boas....i have 2 sets breeding right now and i think my big female is gravid...

well today i see2 mites in the cage that the snakes were fed in...now im worried that they all have or will get them....i dont wanna move the gravid female...how should i go about treating for mites when they are breeding....could i use the pest strip just for like 2 days and take it out but keep one in my snake room and then in a few days put the pest strips back in the cage for 2 more days to try and rid them?


i dont know any other way to treat them when they are breeding and i dont wanna disturb them if i dont have to...but i dont want the mites hurting my snakes either..i love them too much..

please help

greg
