: Well Frank's sis...here's what Mader's Reptile Medicine and Surgery says about it: mite infestation may result in color changes. slightly raised,well demarcated patches of black discoloration often accompany red mite infestation. The lesions are usually confined to the ventral abdomen and the limbs.
: Sounds like we got a match! I'd say continue with the treatments that you're giving your Ig just to be on the safe side....btw...what are you using on him to get rid of the mites?
: Gina

I've been using water and a little bit of vinegar, holding him in my hand and washing him with a sponge. He seems to be doing ok, but I'm worried they won't go away. What does Mader's Reptile Medicine and Surgery say to do about blackened areas?
