Hi

I just bought four "Northern Slimy Salamanders" on a show recently with a friend. When we returned to storage were we keep our herptiles a problem came up... The individuals have small pink "granules" on their stomach and feet...

Do anyone know (1) what kind of problem or disease this is and (2) how your treat or solve this type of problem...?

Please let me know what I can do with it...

Sincerely,
Thomas
 
They are probably trombiculid mites and they can be found seasonally in caudates. They can be difficult to treat and typically require the assistance of a vet.

My salamanders are very small so I wonder if they would survive the stress they will run through when a vet is doing surgery on them....???

Sincerely,
Thomas
