They are back!!ARRRRGGHGHH! This is what i did the first time:
First, i took Isis and put him in the tub with some batedine mixed in with the water. i dumped water on him and floated the mites off. Then i ran a towel over him to get thew rest off. i put him in a secure place and took the HUGE enclosure outside after throwing all the stuff(including climbers, roost, etc)out. Then, with all my might, i sprayed the hose with my thumb over the end, to get most of the mites off. Then i washed it with soapy water, sprayeed again, washed with bleach, sprayed again. then i put a tarp over it after putting in 2 instecticide tubes used for fleas and ticks on dogs, i layed these on reynolds wrap. I let it sit for over 5 hours, then let it air out for about a day and a half. I put Isis back in, set up the cage and fed him. Guess what? I checked last night and they are swarming on him! I groaned so loud! What do i do!? Shouldn't that have worked???PLEASE HELP!!!
