What Are Snake Mites? 

The Snake Mite (Ophionyssus natricis) is a parasitic mite that feeds on the blood of Snakes and Lizards. These parasites are fast moving, dark in colour and will often be observed around the eyes, or mouth, of infected Snakes. The parasites cause Snakes and Lizards intense irritation and can influence their behaviour. Infected reptiles may, for instance, spend more time in water attempting to rid themselves of the mites.

What Is Taurrus & How Can It Help?

Taurrus offers an entirely natural control of the Snake Mite. It uses a species of predatory mite that will quickly consume the Snake Mites, offering a quick and effective solution to infestations.

Key Benefits Of Taurrus:

  • It will kill all Snake Mite stages; from eggs to adults
  • No requirement for handling of the Snakes or Lizards
  • Leaves no after-effects, or harmful residues
  • Completely safe for the reptiles and the user
  • Mites cannot build resistance to Taurrus, unlike in chemicals

How Much Taurrus Do I Need?

• Taurrus M - treats 1-2 terrariums / vivariums
• Taurrus L - treats 10-15 terrariums / vivariums
• Taurrus XL - treats 25-30 terrariums / vivariums
• Taurrus XXL- treats 50 plus terrariums / vivariums

How Do I Apply Taurrus?

Taurrus is easy to use and apply. Simply sprinkle the Taurrus directly onto your reptile, or into the occupied vivarium / terrarium. 

Full application instructions are provided on delivery.

Please do not use Taurrus within 2 weeks of using a chemical product.

When Will I Need To Replace The Taurrus?

The Taurrus mites will last around 4 weeks, and repeat applications may be required for large infestations. Taurrus can be applied on a regular basis as a preventative treatment if applying small amounts every 4/5 weeks. Once all Snake Mites have been consumed Taurrus will naturally die out.

You can expect clear results 2-3 weeks after first release of the product.

Can I Store Taurrus?

We advise using Taurrus straight away upon delivery, this ensures best results as the Mites will be fresh.

Chemical Pesticides

Taurrus mites are living creatures and can be affected by any chemical pesticides used within the previous few weeks. Refrain from using these products or check with Dragonfli for information on the effect of these products on the predatory mites.

Allergy Information 

Just as you can be allergic to cats, pollen, and dust mites, it is also possible to be allergic to the natural substances in predatory mites, feeder mites, and supplementary feeding products. If you are particularly allergy prone and concerned about the potential effects of our mites please contact your local GP prior to purchase. Please note that allergic reactions to our mites are extremely rare.

Banana Boat Sport Kids Sunscreen Spray SPF 50 Oxybenzone-Free 2 pack
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 2)
Reliable, Kid-Friendly Protection with a Few Minor Drawbacks I’ve been using the Banana Boat Sport Kids Sunscreen Spray SPF 50 Oxybenzone-Free Twin Pack for several weeks now, and overall, it’s been a dependable and convenient sunscreen option for my children. As a parent, I’m always looking for products that are both safe and effective, and this sunscreen largely delivers on both fronts. One of the biggest advantages of this sunscreen is its oxybenzone-free formula. With growing awareness about potentially harmful sunscreen ingredients, I appreciate that this product avoids oxybenzone and opts for a safer formulation. It gives me greater peace of mind, especially when my kids are swimming in natural bodies of water where environmental impact is a concern. The SPF 50 protection has been effective. We've used it on sunny days at the pool and during outdoor play, and my kids have not experienced sunburns. It seems to hold up well during physical activity and water exposure. The fact that it’s water- and sweat-resistant is a huge plus, especially for active kids who are constantly on the move. The spray format is also convenient. It’s quick to apply and helps avoid the messiness of lotion, which my kids typically resist. The spray nozzle works well and delivers an even mist that makes it relatively easy to cover arms, legs, and shoulders in seconds. That said, application still requires attention to make sure the product is not being blown away in the wind or missing spots—issues common to most spray sunscreens. There are a few areas where this product could be improved. Like many aerosol sprays, it can be wasteful, especially in windy conditions. A noticeable amount of product can end up in the air rather than on the skin, which means the cans don’t last as long as you might expect. Additionally, I don’t find it ideal for the face. The spray can irritate the eyes or be accidentally inhaled by younger children. I usually pair it with a face stick or lotion sunscreen to ensure full protection without discomfort. Despite these small issues, this sunscreen has become a regular part of our outdoor routine. It’s especially handy when we need to get out the door quickly or reapply sunscreen at the park or pool. The twin pack is a good value for families, and the kid-focused formulation gives me confidence that it’s gentle on sensitive skin. In summary, the Banana Boat Sport Kids SPF 50 Spray offers strong, reliable sun protection in a convenient format that kids (and parents) don’t mind. While there are a few limitations common to spray sunscreens, they don’t outweigh the overall performance and ease of use. It’s a solid choice for families who spend a lot of time outdoors and need something effective, safe, and fast to apply.

Nice non-greasy sun screen.
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 2)
Pleased with how these don't leave us feeling gross. My son has sensory issues sometimes and can't stand the lotion style feeling sticky on him (but who does like that? Lol) and he doesn't mind this when we spray a good amount into our palm and rub it on his skin. Seems to work well at protecting from burns. I also appreciate that it has a very mild scent as I'm picky about that.
