I'm not forcing my opinion on anyone. I'm simply suggesting that it's unsafe. I mean can anyone say going to a vet is a bad thing?

Honestly, I don't think anyone including the OP has said going to the vet is a bad thing!

I'm not saying that. I'm saying, how can you say this is better over vet treatment. Same principal with co-habbing. How can you say it's better over singly housing.

I don't think the OP has said this is a better treatment than going to the vet either

The OP never even acknowledged going to a vet..... I may be wrong though.

Perhaps the OP should of titled the thread "My experience with a home remedy for treating an RI".

Back to the RI debate...
This came up on another forum and a zoologist came on saying why the oils in Eucalyptus/Vic/Menthol were extremely dangerous to a snake....
If I could be bothered to look for it, I would link it... If I stumble upon it later, I will link it..
To the OP.... Vic and boiling water is used over here a lot.. I could link you to a dozen threads about it's success/failure.. But never success after one treatment......
Was you snake going into blue by any chance.......

Been super busy at work and haven't been able to respond (also email wasn't making me aware of any new post). Both snakes seem to have cleared up, neither acting lethargic or losing muscle but I have made an appointment with a vet for next week just to confirm this (also to make certain people who think I'm claiming a vet is unnecessary happy). While there I will ask her professional opinion on this treatment and see what she says (and if she can get me some F10 for cheaper lol). Neither snake is currently in blue, but I have made that mistake in the past on one of my snows lol.
