    Re: HELP!!! baby garter stuck to adhesive!!

    Thanks everyone. In my panic i remembered a dawn dish soap commercial where they got oil off the baby ducks without hurting them by using the dawn. So I got a q-tip with a little dawn on it and just rubbed the area with it lightly. It came off in about 15 seconds. then i rinsed the area with diluted hibiclens and put a little triple antibiotic ointment over it. took the beasty to the vet today though as she lost a couple scales during the wild thrashing. The wound is very superficial though and i got essentially the same triple antibiotic ointment that i had put on it before. She wont eat today though and that has me worried a little but at least the crisis is over :-)
