I have tried a couple of places where you can purchase control slides.  I
think it is partly a personal preference, but I offer these for your
consideration.  Newcomer Supply, 800-383-7799/ http://www.newcomersupply.com
Spirochete (Treponema hyodysenteriae), Catalog number 4655A for a set of 10.


American Master Tech Scientific, Inc.  also makes a control for Spirochete,
catalog number CSSPI,  5-pack, 25-pack.  800-860-4073/
