I'd cover the tank so that it's dark through most of it. You could leave the light off if your room stays around 75 degrees.

Also try misting the tank a couple of times during the next couple of weeks. Give him/her a chance to get settled again. If your snake is healthy, and not kept too hot, a few months without food is nothing.

A couple of items that got non-feeders going for me in the past were f/t gerbils and f/t chicks. I just fed one of my finicky ball pythons chicks this past week. Thawed them under a floodlight to make them warm and just laid them in the enclosure and left him alone. They were gone when I checked 30 minutes later.
