Ok. We have used a multitude of products available for cleaning mites out of enclosures and to treat our snakes. It's a neverending battle for some reason. I was wondering if anyone has or had used the pest strips available at home depot and lowes with any success? By using, I mean cut them up into smaller strips and put the strips into salt shakers, then placing the salt shaker into the enclosure, then replacing every third or fourth month thereafter. Any thoughts, hints, or suggestions would be very appreciated. Thanks.
