A few years ago I went to a seminar given by Dave Barker of VPI.



He told the audiance that mites go through a nymph stage where they become airborn. If this is the case and he said it was then expect the worse case scenario when it comes to the mobility of mites.



I treat once every month with Prevent a Mite and have not seen a mite on my 80 to 100 snakes for over three years.



Good luck
