In Reply to: PTS with mites..will they tranfer to other warmblooded pets? posted by icequeen on April 22, 2003 at 23:35:27:

Hi,

No, the mites don't affect warm-blooded animals, but will spread to any other reptiles you have. I strongly recommend using Proventamite spray. It's available at www.pro-products.com. it won't hurt your skinks, and will kill the mites immediately. I had a PTS get mites once, along with 50 other herps, and one can of this wiped them out in about 20 minutes time (plus it killed the ant colony that had taken up residence in that room, that I didn't know about yet.)
