what do you treat the snake in??

whenever i've had them in the past i've always moved it into a plastic container, treated the snake over a few weeks and treat the viv at the same time.

frontline,dilute it with water spray on a cloth and let the snake ease its way through the cloth,either spray the viv with frontline and leave for 20mins or so and then clean it with warm water,also other bits that were in the viv once cleaned with frontline or bleach then cook it in the oven.Just make sure the viv is cleaned out properly after the treatment has been done

speciallised for living off reptiles - there are loads of sites that depict all the different sorts. i was frightened by how far they can go in a day.

i would suggest the olive oil technique, works a treat.
