Does dish soap work If I use it on the snakes? I'm waiting for PAM to come it could take 3 weeks and mabe not come at all. Every time I think I killed them another snake has them.. I'm getting pissed lol.

Default Re: Dish soap?

in my experience using dish soap will only get rid of the mites on the surface. I had to deal with mites a little while back and the only thing that really worked was PAM. If you're PAM isn't due to arrive for a couple weeks Its probably a good idea to use dish soap just to provide relief and keep them some what under control until to PAM arrives, good luck!
