How you get a monitor off your finger when it bites?

Youtube doesn't work for me today. Is it by animalpassion777? With a nile?

The best way is supposed to be using vinegar or alcohol. I've only been bitten by one monitor one time, with vinegar it came right off. since then I've gotten better at reading their behavior, so i never get bit anymore.

I've heard that you can pour vinegar in the mouth and they should let right go. I've never had to try it so...

That's an NJ Drivers License I wonder where there at. Noobs>

When I kept large monitor I would keep a bottle of alcohol close to the cage, just incase I needed to remove one. Monitors are well known for not letting go.

However, I think that video was staged, and they were just putting on a show.

I heard Binaca works great. Just give them a spray in the mouth or face. I imagine if you're bleeding the Binaca might sting a little!

holding it under cold water stream might work, or alcohol.
never try to take your finger back like that, they might rip it off.
imagine what a big monitor can do..
