Help with mites :(

Last year I rescued a Burmese python that was loaded with mites. I got rid of them by scrubbing the cage with soapy water several times. I dried it shop vacuumed in between each wash. I put mineral oil all over the snake including on her face and let her hang out in a covered tub while I was washing the cage. I did this every other day for a week. The mites have never returned. Keep in mind that everything in that cage had to be removed and I used simple paper substrate during the entire process. Worked for me.

Yay!
In the end, daily baths, tank scrubbing, and provent-a-mite seemed to get rid of the mites. He also shed during the second week I had him.
I did end up returning him, so I can't say for certain he was 100% mite free as I didn't hold him for a long time after treatment (and I made that clear). He was quite pretty but the situation made me decide to cut back, a lot. It's possible the mites were acquired at the show, but it wasn't from me - I picked him up at the very end and he's the only one that ended up with mites.

Thank goodness for quarantine!

Thanks for all your help guys
