diluted frontline for cats and dogs, spray it on your hands and massage the dragon, also treat the viv with it, they will be gone in no time

I spotted a few mites on my beardie when I first got him.
I used a product called Provent-A-Mite, and it cleared them up straight away.
I did not even have to strip the whole viv out, just took him out and sprayed the viv.

It is an american product, but I got some mail order from a UK company called JunglePhase - there number is 01708 500800.

frontline every time for me - works a treat - I dilute it put a bit on kitchen roll and put it on the lizard or snake - then use another bit to clean the viv - 100% success

Not had mites with my herps though, yet?
