You have to let it is in the boiling water till the buggers turn white then they are dead and any spores they release will die also. or you can bast them till they die and you will have more of the rock survive. remember to brush the spots that you use boiling water on. I have done this before on a few rocks I got from a guy here in Kamloops kills them dead never to come back.

Thanks Bill, the problem is they are all over the rock so boiling water will very much kill the rock so maybe it is easier for me just to dry them out and then reseed the rock later?
