Returning after a couple years and have some Qs

[Smotzer]

because of a couple of sling deaths that I'm not sure what caused

Do you own furry pets?

That's true, by "back into the hobby" I more meant actively browsing forums and stuff rather than just caring for the Ts I already have.

I have researched, dw. Had Ts for about 5 years or so and was just considering dipping out because of a couple of sling deaths that I'm not sure what caused

Don’t let that stop you.

Nothing has changed- research research

Dog and a cat, can they have caused it?

Oh yeah definitely, I'm a relative newbie compared to most

Not directly, but back then might you have used topical flea treatment on them?

I'm not sure, i don't think so. It was a couple years ago and we've only ever really used worm tablets on the furry animals

Well if you had it may have explained the deaths, we see it somewhat commonly, people unknowingly introduce a pesticide to a T due to topical flea treatments. Another option is substrate with fertilizers/chemicals In it, or human error sometimes too much/ too little moisture.

Hm, guess I'll have to be pretty careful from now on. Thank you for offering some possibilities
