I would be careful......Just really let the substrate dry thoroughly......I used provent a mite on all of my eastern hognoses and had very bad luck.....Several died do to neurological difficulties....But the thing that is weird is that it only killed the male snakes....I treated every hognose Ive got and only the males died....I followed the instructions as explained....I have since heard of the same thing happening to a colony of garter snakes(killing only males)....I think the product is good but I will never use it again on my hognoses..
