swarmed!

virgy1 Aug 27, 2005 09:47 PM

my poor pacman was swarmed by ants...we got them all off, and put him in a seperate cage. he has tiny bite marks all over his body, so i put an extra slime coat(aquatize conditioner by exo terra) on him, and sprayed him down with water. does anyone have any other suggestions for me ? thanks

That sounds painful, I think you've done pretty much everything other than let him heal and keep ants out for good now. Anyone else know what he could do? If the bites are bloody maybe put on some kind of antibiotic ointment, but I'm no expert on injuries like that, that's the first time I've ever heard of that, I live in a cold area so I don't have that problem. Good luck.

Your lucky you didnt lose him... I lost all four of my little RETF's to ants.

Thanks,
Andrew
