| Ive only seen 3 under his chin and then a couple that have come off when I handled him. I think I might give Callingtons a go. Just hope I dont gas him out with all the chemicals I have used! |

| probably one that was in the viv any on him will have drowned in the oil. the adrap will kill them when they come into contact with it, could hoover out the viv to get. rid of any left in there |

Just an update on Eowyns mites. Two treatments of mite off hadn't got rid of them, so last night we gave her a rub down with kitchen roll sprayed with frontline. We got this from the vet the last time we had mites, and was successful, so fingers crossed again.
I'm following the olive oil treatment with interest just encase. |
