wh, no, i'm not talking about the tape kind. these are a plastic box with a pad inside that emits a smell or something that kills the insects.

crispi, i too have used these in snake cages (your collection surprises me!) when i kept rt boas and burms, but the weirdest thing is that i did not put the strip IN the cage, which i HAVE done with the snakes. the strip was about eight feet away, and was put in to kill the spiders in my bedroom.

thank god i woke up last night; buck would have been dead for sure. he's super p'd right now, and stressed to the max; i hope he recovers from the shock, as stress is a big time killer for any reptile.

wh, please tell everyone you know. i almost lost my baby, and i'm thinking about what effect it may have on small dogs, cats, and even children.

scary...
