Sick BHP?

[Pythonguy1]

Hi guys,
So I just noticed my Black-headed python rubbing the top of his head on the floor of his enclosure. Why is he doing this? Is this a sign of a disease or something? I'm a little worried, any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers, Josiah

Is there any chance it could be mites ? Have you aquired any new reptiles recently ?

checked for that, no mites. however I did F-10 his enclosure today and may have given it a bit of an overdose. Maybe he's just reacting to a new smell? Anything else that might be going on?

What dilution ratio? I use 1ml:750ml/water— a weak dilution can actually be dangerous to skin/animals

Is it possible he’s coming up to a shed? They’ll rub their head against the floor/rough edges to get it started

Standard dilution 1:500 - He shed about a 10 days ago - He took a bath last night, I've just fed him, he took it pretty well.
