It was either the paint in my room or the perfume bottle I used to mist them with. I think it was the bottle. I'm sorry they all died:(

Did the bottle actually hold perfume before you turned it into a mister? I'd buy a plain, never been used before, spray bottle from walmart, lowes, dollar general, etc.

To say something like "DKS doesn't exist" is extremely stupid. There is a multitude of videos of it, and accounts of it happening. It killed off most of my Ts so I know for a fact that it exists.
The argument is that it isn't a 'disease' or a 'poison' in particular.. That it is really an observed reaction to what could be a multitude of causes.

Its like saying someone is suffering from a 'cough'. Well, that could be deadly, or it could be something quite insignificant.

Just because someone else's T managed to pull through cause they found febreeze had been sprayed in their cage hardly means that one's one should pull through cause you stopped spraying Pledge. What if it turns out the T was just dehydrated?

+1 on this.

I have snakes too and feed fish (they are garters) I bought a bunch of buckets and wrote FISH on two of them... so I NEVER use them for anything else.

When I got my first sling I bought an empty little spraybottle from the "travel" area and used that... never had any problems.

I moved into a new house this past year... and PAINTED the week before. I just aired everything out and they have been fine... so I doubt it was the paint.

I'm sorry for your losses. and Good luck with the ones you have remaining.
