since I found that my ball python had mites, I completely cleaned out his cage (filled the tank with water plus a little dish soad and tiny bit of bleach...I rinsed it out a ton, and then I cleaned it with 'reptile relief' spray also). I got rid of the bedding and everything else. I have him on paper towels with cardboard hides.
I soaked the snake in warm water for a while, which drowned some of the mites, but not all of them (I could see some still hiding under his scales), so I dried him off and sprayed him down with 'reptile relief'. Now I looked in his cage and could see a few mites crawling on him, as well as some in his cage, and I was wondering...is reptile relief supposed to work fairly quickly, or is it more of a slow death type of thing? Am I going to have to try again in a couple of days?
