Wow, I haven't been here for a while :P.

Well, I went to handle my corn a few days ago and it noticed these tiny clear things running around in the viv. I immediately got everything out of the tank and put the corn in a Tupperware box with air holes. I disenfected the hides, heatmat, fake plants, waterbowl and the whole vivarium. And I gave the snake bath

I got rid of all the old aspen that was in there and I wen't out and bought a whole new bag of substrate.

Do you think this has got ridden of them 'things'?

I did change the substrate after I seen the bugs to some little wooden things that looks like this.
