Bob,
Thanks for posting that info on your product vs. 'similar' products based on the labels. I've had this discussion in the past with other posters who've said 'Why should I use P-A-M, when I can just buy something else that has the same ingredient but is cheaper?'
Because you were willing to talk to me on your nickel a few years back out a mite infestation I was having trouble with [for nearly an hour I might add], I've trusted your product and the research backing it up. I've used it since for a total of three outbreaks involving only three separate snakes and I attribute the control and containment of the infestation to your product.
As a precautionary measure I've since used it regularly to treat leaf litter, dry grasses, and branches brought in from outdoors for use in naturalistic vivaria I've created and I've recommended to other herpers for the same preventative purpose.
Anyway, don't want to sound like this is a mutual admiration society or anything. Just thanks for posting the detailed info. Have you considered having that information posted on your site in the form of an article? In the past I've always referred people to contact you directly if they had specific questions about your product and its proper use.
I think the meat of your earlier post should be required reading for anyone considering their options in fighting a mite outbreak and especially for those people considering cheaper and potentially dangerous methods of treatment. ----- Matt Campbell
