Posted by: eunectes4 at Tue Nov 9 18:03:01 2004 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by eunectes4 ] Pyrethrins is the active ingredient that kills mites. This is extrememly toxic and doses in prevent-a-mite are more than twice that of sprays you can use directly on the animal. Make sure you spray the cage and remove all water dishes and allow the enclosure to air out for a long time before re-entry on the animal or water dish. Blacknight is of the shelves but I believe you can still get mite-RX to put directly on the animal if you have a diluted enough dose in the bottle. Also, prevent-a-mite will work great on the cage and will help kill mites and not allow your enclosure to host them but as far as the animal you may want to give it some extra help. They do not want mites any more than you do so if you give them a large enough water container to soak in...often times they will drown the mites and eggs themselves. | ||
