Bugs on the mouth and nostrils?

Erdinger2003 Sep 20, 2006 01:35 PM

My corn snake recently has become dull and listless, I have noticed some (mites?) on his nose and mouth. I put some hydrogen peroxide on there and now there are more. I need to know how to get rid of these damn mites. I don't suppose they would go away after a good shedding?

you need to get a mite killer (I use proventamite) and treat both the snake and the cage area. Follow the directions on the can very carefully.
