Aww poor beardie....

Yuk that looks horrable,, how did you fing out that he had them and how you cure it and dis-infect please.

There's 3 beardeds with mites there not just one.

Thanks, its a Fujifilm Finepix A800.....my christmas present

Yes, all 3 new beardies have got them.

Immortal, when i got them i didn`t really examine them closely, i thought they`d be better off being left to settle in. They weren`t eating properly, and i noticed they were all very subdued and looked down in the dumps. When i looked closer at their eyes etc i saw the mites in the folds.
I used MiteOff spray and soaked them with it, and cleaned their eyes as best i could with a cottonbud dipped in olive oil, the viv was stripped and everything disinfected in V.18, they`re back in there now on just newspaper. Just hoping the spray will do the trick.

Horrible little critters

what are you using to spray them???

Mite Off

Sounds like Mite Off is working - I haven't tried that - once my rankins had the mites it spread to the snakes and I've been using Provent a Mite (on the vivs) but although the dragons have been clear now for a couple months my crawl cay still seems to have them just when I think they've gone
