Anyone near Charlotte NC willing to sit a adult panther chameleon for a week at the end of June? I can will supply feeders, and supliments, but I don't have a portable cage. Let me know I am going out of town for one week. Thanks Rodney

Good experiment Melissa. I have treated my Cham cage with a soak of BTI with no ill effects going in 3 weeks now

I'm not too familiar with the chemical makeup of this product but I thin you did the right thing by moving the cage for a day or two while it airs out.

DGRAY i was referring to the comment around it safe for reptiles as a drench. Any specific study you could share or if you were just referring to your direct experience. Real world experience is good and maybe all we will have at this point.

Looks like this was moved from general to enclosure and supplies. Not sure that makes sense but we can work with it.

Can you share what you used to deal the drafts? Foam or silicon?

If this indeed a safe method of treating fungus gnats this is the kind if stuff this community, and vivariums keepers should spread the word. As so few products are made for these directly for these hobbies, and likely ever will for profit. To me this is how we improve the hobby.

Great discussion I have also used BTI particularly the product "WDG Gnatrol" for plants as a soil drench. I have also used musqitoe dunks for house plants for years with almost 100% eradication results after 2-3 soil drenches. Dgray do you have any scientific data or are you supplying real...

I have 7 vivariums and growing. They all have fungus gnats to some degree. Because they are fully setup tanks I cannot take them apart and use soap and water. Having said that I am have not applied BTI. That's exactly why I posted here to see what the consensus was. Don't you think this...

Thanks for the comments. I have been hesitant to test mainly because I don't have the equipment to validate if their was issues. My gut says there is Likely no issues. I believe this product is already in use in Hawaii, and different locations in Africa and the amazon basin. There has been...

Interesting take Frank. BTI is approved by the WHO for potable water treatment of blackflys and musqitoes.

Anyone use this as a biological knat control? I have used as an indoor removal many times but was curious if anyone has tried with chameleons? I believe it is species specfic for knats Mosquitos and fly.

Also two last pics of his feeding bowl.
