Hi, just a quick question:
does hot water and soap kill mites in cages (aquariums, if I submerge them in the bathtub for a while? I know I need stronger stuff for the gerbs (have a vet appt on Tuesday), but want to at least get as many of the mites out of the cages NOW <g>. I don't know how badly infested they are, since I just found one fat, red mite crawling on me after playing with 2 of our gerbs. No overt signs on any of them (no scratching or visible mites) but they are there. I'm freezing their current food now (how long does it have to stay in the freezer). -- Best regards, Susanne mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
