Do I put the paper towels in his hide? Where do I put them?

You could follow what Nanci has written in one of her advice threads. She said to take a containers and put a few centimetres or so of water (depends on the size of the snake) and also place a small towel/flannel in there. Let him just roam around in there and then you could manually remove the pieces.
Hope that helps!

Brilliant advice Nanci.
What I do if it's just a couple of smaller pieces is wet a q-tip and dab the area a couple of times. Give it a sec to absorb the moisture and it should come right off. If it's larger then I do a variation of what Nanci does. But I like her idea better so I'll probablly adopt that.

Thanks for the advice, and the link Nanci. Those were pretty pictures. Cheerio doesn't have that much on him, just two tiny pieces on his back. I think the qtip will be plenty.
