• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

WHAT THE HELL?!?! THIS WEEK IS GOING TO KILL ME! sunday i went in to check my snakes and everything is great, didnt see not 1 speck of dust or anything and monday rolls around and guess what FRIGGIN' MITES IN 3 CAGES!!! WTF?!?! i clean their cages 2 - 3 times a week and sometimes 4 depending on if i see something dirty. doesnt matter what i see it gets comepletely cleaned right there on the spot so why the hell i get mites? THIS IS CRAZY AS HELL!!! i know sometimes they just pop up but hell now i feel like all the work i do for their cages is for nothing. i am so depressed!
 
Two words: BLACK KNIGHT.

Mites happen regardless of how clean you keep your enclosures. Order some Black Knight and always have a can on hand.
 
We use to house ours with aspen and would get random, freak appearances of mites. Since then we've changed to newspaper and haven't seen one mite since. I think they can come from the subsrate sometimes. JMO.
