My baby corn has mites

[Smilts]

Hi, I have a baby corn with mites and as luck would have it the only pet store around doesnt have any mite spray. So Im hoping someone has some safe for babys, home remedys for mites they can suggest.

Nix. Type "nix" into the search feature here and you'll get TONS of threads on the topic.

can any head lice shampoo do or does it have to be nix

[Smilts]

question about the nix they dont have the shampoo they have the 2 ounce head spray version. If this is diluted I assume it will work as well?

[phil_7870]

but hat if u cant get nix at all could u use a different kind of lice stuff

[Smilts]

Ive been doing some searching at Mykee's suggestion and have found nothing about any other kind of lice shampoo's mentioned.

[phil_7870]

either could i .but i heard that its the main ingredient in nix (permethrin) that kills the lice so if u found a lice shampoo that has this to it might work .im just wondering as i might (hopefully not) have to use it in the future

Not sure about any other products besides Nix. I use it, have for years (when any new animal comes into the facility) and love it. You'll need the pink shampoo, not the spray.

Yep went to another store got the shampoo and its working. Ty for the advice. It had been a very long time since Ive had this problem.

i cant find it anywhere and when i went to the shops they cant even order it in so any other stuff i could use if need be

Some one on another site is telling me that diluted Rid is good as its basicly the same as prevent a mite. ( I dont know if that is true or not or if long time herpers would recommend it or not)
