Sevin Dust for Mites
Hiya guy's quick question..
I found a mite on one of my Corns last nite...I read the tutorial by Admin on using Sevin dust to kill the mites...It seems to have gotten in there from a bag of Aspen substrate...
No worries so far right??
Well here is my dilemma and you may laugh if you wish..
IS SEVIN DUST and Sevin 5 dust the same thing??
I know the caresheet says to use the one that has 5% and this is what I have...It looks kinda like brown flour
If it helps, this is what I have

use repel permanone. you get it in the camping section at walmart. take snake and water bowl out of enclosure and spray it real good (enclosure) stop all air form getting in. leave it that way for 45 minutes. then let all air in for half an hour. then put snake and water back in. kills all mites on the snake and your substrate and logs etc...are mite free. i use mulch. |
