Treating new tubs with PAM
I'm getting a rack from RBI and shortly thereafter three BPs from NERD. Does it make sense to treat the tub with PAM (Provent-a-Mite) before putting the BPs in it? Is there any preventative value in doing so?

Well, couldn't hurt! It is Provent a mite after all.
Or you could just wait to get the snakes. I am not really sure, this is my best guess.

Any new snake coming into my house goes into a pretreated tub.

Thanks all - I'll treat the tubs before putting the snakes in.

Re: Treating new tubs with PAM
I always pre-treat my enclosures with P-A-M, no matter who they come from. For me, it's a best practice.
