    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bad Guy Avangel Reptiles- parasitic reptiles, and more

My mom recommended we use diatomaceous earth to rid our house of demodectic mites... It hasn't proven to be an effective parasite cure or even remedy.

If it was approved, then that evidence will be brought forward when Emily speaks up. I do faintly recall an instagram post about how Armion was FDA approved a while back (before he blocked me on ig) so it's not like I made the statement based purely on rumor.

Even if I still had access to view his instagram, since he's made his account private, he's been deleting posts (shown by his post count decreasing)

All the effort he's putting into changing his identity and covering his back seems to be almost as good as an admission of guilt. I reported his facebook account by the way, because it is against the rules to use a fake name.

Color me extremely skeptical of it having ever been FDA-approved (for the reasons I mentioned). If it has ever been stated as such by him, I would like to see it if that can be found at some point in the future.

I forgot to add internal. It will not help with internal parasites. It will help with external stuff like fleas and mites, but worms it will not affect.

Also, it is not safe to inhale and can cause skin irritation in lizards.
 
I can't understand why anyone would want to feed this to their reptiles..

Diatomaceous earth is actually rather nasty to anything that makes the mistake of breathing or ingesting it, which is why it's recommended for pest control in houses without free range pets and small children.

So yeah. Not really sure why anyone would think that's something beneficial for an animal to ingest.
 
Here's some info on DE if anyone is interested, including studies done on the effects pest insects. There is no proof that it kills internal parasites.

Also, I would bet a small fortune (or even a large one) that this product was never FDA-approved. The FDA does not regulate supplements, only food and drugs (and to my knowledge, only human drugs). And to get a drug evaluated by the FDA takes years and years of studies that the manufacturer has to pay for, and lots and lots of money.

Yeah and Chaz pretty much started making this crap within the last couple years, so there's no way it ever was approved. If that's true and Emily has a screenshot of him saying it was approved, then that just adds to fact that's he's a liar.
 
Julia, since you're not planning on showing up in nothing but a trench coat, I wonder what he'd say if I did it instead lol jj Feeding sick geckos to roaches is probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard of and to be honest this piece of garbage should be locked up.

Yes, I agree that it's just another lie in his web of deceit evidently. I just wanted to clarify that I'm not saying this girl (or any of the other girls who were told this Armion substance was FDA approved) is lying--I believe this is another lie purported by the guy who "developed" it, told to these girls.

I also wanted to say that I'm sorry you girls (sorry, I'm terrible with names and on my phone so it's difficult to jump back posts) had to be put through all the lies, deceit, and inappropriate sexual behavior. One can only hope the parents of the next impressionable underage girl find this thread.

As someone who works in the veterinary field, the FDA does regulate animal drugs and dietary supplements. Though, I'm with you when it comes to believing that Armion was never FDA-approved.

Thank you kouneli for the correction. I work in healthcare (human, although sometimes I wish I'd chosen veterinary ;) and I never knew DSHEA was part of the FDA, or that FDA regulated animal medicine (although it does make sense since many are given to humans and animals). Learn something new everyday! Thanks again :)





Anyway, sorry to get off track all...

I would love to send a big scary guy in nothing but a trench coat to his door, and have them take all his geckos away so he can't neglect them anymore! Neglect is a form of animal abuse isn't it? Animal abuse is a felony in most states, I wonder if he realizes he's committing a crime? Well 2 crimes since all those girls are under age. I know someone who was accused of the same thing he does, sending underage girls inappropriate messages and nude pictures, the police came and took every electronic device he owned. All because the girls parents said he was doing those things. If he's reported I'm pretty sure they will do the same to him.

I'm not trying to downplay this, but is 17 underage in the USA? Isn't 16 legally the age of sexual consent? Just wanting clarification from a non-USA citizen....

In California, where Chaz lives, the age of consent is 18. Nationwide, the minimum age for girls to appear in naughty pictures is 18. I'm sure in some of the states that other girls live in may have younger minimum ages, but instead of going out to them where it may have been legal, he asked them to come to him, where it wasn't. It's almost as if he only wanted to do it to break the law, given how easy it would've been to wait or go elsewhere.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_North_America

In California, age of consent is 18. In other states, it varies between 16-18. Some states also have "Romeo and Juliet laws" to protect teenage couples when one reaches age of consent before the other, although it didn't apply here. To my understanding, this guy was 27 (I think? Correct me if I'm wrong) and the girl was 16 or 17. While legal in some states (but not in California), it seems rather predatory and manipulative IMHO.

I was 17, and Victoria was also 17. And for an idea of how bad it was, take a look at Julia's screenshots. He was that bad, but in other respects. Less poetic I suppose...
