safe mite spray for small geckos and Chameleons

mettzilla Jun 25, 2003 03:20 PM

I will be getting a few WC lizards. One of teh OP's from herp chat told me of some spray he thought was safer than Black Knight, Especially since I may be using it on small geckos and Jax Cham's. Forgot the name and lost the site,, any input is appreciated.

There is no such thing as a mite spray that is safe for lizards. If it's potent enough to kill the mites, then it will seriously sicken and probably kill the geckos and chameleon.

Mites need to be dealt with in an entire different manner, here's a great article:
