And how do you get rid of them?
I know they're not mites. They are bigger, and they looks almost like tiny dog ticks.
I've killed the ones I've seen, but they're coming back.
I've only found a few, but I don't want it to turn into any more.. I just need to know how to get rid of them and how you get them, so that I can prevent it in the future.
Thanks,
Jon Short

They come free of charge from the Tick store... www.sticknticks.com
Like any paracytic creature they are passed from one host to another through a number of methods. I pick the large ones off or dab their bodies with some Provent-a-mite on a Q-tip. I also spray their cage now and in 10-14 days so you get any others that hatch out in that time span.
Finally, I use a small piece of Hotshot pest strip I leave in their cage for long term protection.

Thanks Al.
I e-mailed you about a week ago asking you a question. I wanted to know if you would be interested in trying out my snake hooks.
If you are interested, please tell me the size you want so that I can make you one.
Thanks again,
Jon Short
