Re: provent a mite in canada
From what I understand, the Nix, RID, and Equate (Wal-Mart brand) lice bedding sprays all have exactly the same active ingredient as PAM (0.5% permethrin, very important!!!!). If you follow the directions for use of any of them, you should be fine. Good luck!

Re: provent a mite in canada
For some reason I feel as though my reptile shop carries it. If so the next time I go I will stock up and get in touch with you guys to work out a way to send some over.

I will definately take you up on that offer. If you can get ahold of it and ship it, that would be great!! Nix is good too, but more work since you have to mix a batch when needed, whereas the PAM you just spray and your done!!

Re: provent a mite in canada
i have succesfully used nix on all my snakes and you can store it once the 4l is mixed, it has to be kept out of the light though or the active ingredient is broken down, i havent been able to find any PAM here in BC
