black knight...

A while back I posted about a mite problem I'm having with my baby boa. He's a redtail a little over a foot long. I'm wondering if it'll be safe? I'm aware that I should spray him sparingly as to not overwhelm him, but I'm a little paranoid. Is it going to be safe for my little guy?

I don't think you're supposed to spray the animal itself....the only thing I've used with great success spraying the actual animal is "Nix" which is a lice treatment.I've used this on a boa, kingsnake, and a python with no ill effects.

Proexotics has an article on using black knight on their website, and you can always email Robyn if you have any questions on it...
