I'm having trouble myself. New here and can't figure out how to get a new message on this board. It's Feb. is anyone out there? Have you figured it out? Can you keep the snake? Mine isn't eating after a major mite treatment. I think she can't see? worried and can't seem to get any responce.

When giving the Batadine treatment bath, the snake goes under and above the water. The mites go in and around the nostrils & eyes. The minerial oil goes on and below the head area. I was told this treatment wouldn't hurt the snake at all. It has been 2-3 weeks since its last treatment. No mites but Baja sure isn't the same.
