sxereturn, i have used the Hypoaspis mite... excellent thats all i have to say, they cleaned up the problem in no time (1-2 days max) and then died off after about 7 days, they get into everything (logs etc) so give it a good clean outhave never had a prob with mites again.
Orange medic is also not a bad product for the specific treatment of individual animals, dilute it in warm water at the same rate as dettol, and wipe it over the herp (staying away from heat pits on pythons, and use cotton woll around the face area)
cheers
