Should I use Zilla Shed-Ease Reptile Bath??

So my little girl, Anuk is having a bit of trouble shedding. I'm worried because she hasn't shed yet and I think she has a shed build up, but I can't tell because I've never had that problem before. She's eating normally and has definitely grown since I got her. She is misted regularly, and I've used most paper towels in her tank, but still no shed. I recently purchased Zilla Shed-Ease Reptile Bath, but I wanted to ask if this stuff is any good, or if I should just forget it and take her to a vet? If someone has an idea, please let me know!! :)
 
Just buy some Sphagnum moss and moisten it with a warm water. I place this in a container over night with the snake in it. By morning the shed is off the snake cleanly.

I know others use paper towels but I like the idea of the snake able to crawl through the moss to remove the shed.
 
Has she already gone "blue" and cleared up?

If so, she'll shed anyday now.

If not, how long has it been since her last shed?
 
Actually Jim, she already had moss. I feel like SUCH an idiot though!! I checked to see how damp her moss was, and her water was getting low so I went to refil it and there were two perfect sheds stuck underneath her bowl. I have no idea why I never looked under her bowl before because a few of my others had sheds stuck under their bowls. I seriously feel like a moron. God, I'm stupid sometimes. :dunce:
