Are Tortoise Mites Transmissible to Snakes?
Got a baby cherry head red-footed tortoise in quarantine in the same room with my olive house snakes. I noticed little red mites scurrying about in the tortoise's tub and was wondering if they can infest the house snakes as well.
First time we've ever had mites, believe it or not. Thank goodness they are quarantined upstairs away from the snake room.
I am planning to treat the tortoise with Reptile Relief. Should I hit the snakes as well?
