Mouth rott issue

[liegekiller]

One of my snakes has a bad case of mouth rott and I was wondering if someone can tell me the best way to get rid of it. The snake has had a problem since I rescued it about a year ago but I couldn't say that it was mouth rott at that time. However, now I can say for sure it is and it is not good. It is bad enough that it cloggs up his nasal passages and when I remove the scab it does bleed a little. I have been using neosporin triple anti-biotic but need to know what else I can do to kick this. Thank you for your help

Best advice I have seen yet.


If you don't know of a herp vet in your area, the best place to find one is at ARAV.com

It is the Assoc. of Reptile and Amphibian Veterinarians.

Ask the Vet if you can use Betadine for mouthrot.

Go to arav.com

Inside the box next to the frog...click the Members tag (you don't have to be a member...or even register)

Click the UNITED STATES tab at the top (unless you are outside the US)

Pick your state.

It will give you a list of vets that are members...they are alphabetically by city name.
