Permectrin pesticide for mites...

Bergmantis Mar 11, 2008 02:41 PM

I was once reccommended to use Permectrin to kill mites with by a breeder, which he was reccommended to use it by Peter Kahl. I have used it once on a very mild case of mites and it worked fine. I am wondering if anyone has heard of this before as well or had any experience with it?

Thanks,

Mat

3 cc's per large industrial spray bottle of water. Just remove the water bowls and snake. Spray cage area and put snake and water bowl back in.
