I gave my vivs the Ardap treatment on Monday. Boris had about 10 mites. Everything seemed ok. Got him out just now and he had a small black mite under his chin! Does this mean the Ardap didnt work? Yukky things! |

Bathed Boris, nothing came off him. Dont quite know how to proceed. Thank goodness Sas doesnt have them. He doesnt like water! |

Best to do the bath thing and keep an eye on it
They like to get near the vent as well as under the chin
Good luck ;) |

Very true they would hav come in contacted
Unless they were riding on his back
Have you seen them dead on the paper or in the water bowl ?
If they won't dead yet they will be soon ardap I've heard nothing but good things about |

well I sprayed the viv and the stuff in it. Gave Boris a bath and put him back after 24 hrs. |

I was under the impression that they have to come in contact with the spray
How would the die ? As theres no fumes to kill them

I picked it out from under the scale and squashed it! Doesnt spraying the viv kill them then? I am very confused.This was a smaller one than before. |

The mites have to come in contact with the ardap
Best to do a very shallow bath (30-32c) and pop I tiny bit of fairy liquid to break the water surface
And it should disturb it and either move from under his chin or die
Repeat every now and then
Hope you get the mites sorted soon |
