Can Leos get mites???

ScarletFever Nov 12, 2004 11:41 AM

Hey everyone,
I have been told that leos do not typically get mites, and one of my new snakes has a case of mites. Although she is quarantined and I have cleaned my room top-to-bottom, is it still possible for my leos to get mites?
Thanks!
SF

They sure can. Look especially in those 4 armpits. Another place they say to look is under the chin, but mites like to hide better than that usually.

Ive had mites before so yes they can get them.
