@troyz22 Wow right now go look up "Gremlins" Its a movie tha mikeyype is alking about is a clasic in my family

@dttruon: Transfer the frogs to a temporary tank, and then evaporate some dry ice into the tank. Make sure it fills with CO2, let the mites "soak" for a day, fan it out, and drop the frogs back in.

As an added bonus the plants will go nuts after the super feeding.

@dttruon I use miticide myself although only when the mites become quite noticeable. Benzyl Benzoate is what I use however I do not spray the whole tank down, just upper lips or so of the vivarium and undersides of things that the frogs won't get into frequently. I have never had problems though I use the miticide sparingly and dilluted heavily in the viv.

@troyz22 He's a pervert...

[PaNdeM0niuM]

does your bedroom smell?

Just curious if frogs are smelly pets

[dttruon]

i've got live plants in my frog terrarium, therefore i've also got mites in my terrarium. apparently i can't hose down the terrarium with excess water. nor can i use soapy water nor miticides because that can kill my frogs. the frogs breathe and rehydrate themselves by exchanging water through their skin, so oil will clog up their pores as well as suffocate them too. what other solution can you think of that is not harmful to the frogs? thank you.
