:Hi,
:Unfortunately I noticed this afternoon that my boa had mites. I quickly ran to the pet store and bought a bottle of Reptile Relief. Has anyone used this stuff before? Does it work?

:It seems to be a 3-4 stage process. Basically spraying down the enclosure and snake 3 times, every 3 days.

:Please let me know.

:Thanks,
:Peter F.


hi, i've used it twice and found it works really well. what i did was saturate a paper towel and wiped the snakes down with it.i then sprayed their enclosures and left the tanks to soak overnight (with the snakes removed) and then rinsed the next day. haven't seen a mite since. on the mites i was able to see actually on the snake what i would do was spray the reptile relief on a q-tip and rub it over the mite and it pretty much killed on contact. hope this helps.
