I dilute one bottle of Nix (lice shampoo) in a gallon of water. Then I mist the snake heavily with the Nix solution and thoroughly clean everything the snake has touched with Nix solution and anti-bacterial soap. Clean everything. I use news paper as a substrait so not to give any mites a place to hide or lay eggs, and that way it's easier to see how successful you were with the cleaning. If done right this should kill them all in one shot. You may want to repeat this whole procedure in 7-10 days just to be sure. The bad news is if one snake has mites, they all do. Best of luck, they are a really pain in the a$$. Great why to start the new year huh?
