Terry,



Good anecdotes for supporting the use of P-A-M as well. You mentioned



>They can be almost impossible to get rid of and may last for years for some people.



The beauty [as you and I know] of P-A-M is that you CAN get rid of mites, usually in less than two weeks, not to mention being able to erradicate an infestation collection-wide. At least you and I and a few others know of the worth of this product. We can only hope others read our reviews and don't take short cuts. I looked on Dave Barker's site a couple days ago, because I remembered he had and article detailing how to combat mite infestation. Surprisingly, he still advocates the use of No-Pest strips! To say I was flabbergasted is an understatement - with a product like P-A-M available, No-Pest strips just seem so 'stone-age', and given the evidence of deaths and cancers related to organophosphate exposure among herps - sheesh... you'd have to be an idiot to still be using them.
