yep, got in touch with our vet as well, my concern with using the peroxide was simply that I didn't know exactly where I was putting it if I put in into an umbilical cord....he assured me that it was only going in under the carapace, but suggested just putting them under a fast running tap (without drowning them) to wash them all out, which I did - seemed pretty successful, but followed up with a salt water wash as well...to date all seem OK and no sign of maggots, just hope there are none that have got sealed in now that the yolk sac is completely dried up...
