Well this morning I found a few mites on my new Albino Corn... well after spending all morning cleaning everything in the tank with a 10% bleach mixture I feel safe that it's all clean. I put the glass tank back to it's old spot, put the uth under it, layed down some paper towel... made a hide out of cardboard and put a very clean/disinfected water dish in. Then I began to treat my snake for the mites. I gave him a soapy bath, but he didn't like that so I took him out and let him swim in some fresh water. I used some Extra Virgin Olive Oil and covered his entire body with that, twice. Later on I took him to the vet and he gave me some mite treatment that is for cats and dogs. It's called: Revolution, it's a Selamectin Topical Soultion. Would this be safe to use on him?
Also, is there anything else I can do to help get rid of the mites and prevent them from coming back?
Thanks guys!
