You didn't mention how long ago you had a mite problem or what you are using to rid them. Maybe the eggs can lay dormant for a period of time. We had a mite problem about 1 1/2 years ago. We tried several things (to include bugs that would eat the mites), nothing worked until we pulled all the carpet in the snake room and threw away all the newspaper we had stored in the room.
The way I understand it, reptile mites won't feed on mammals and mammal mites won't feed on reptiles, so the food shouldn't be a source.
Hope this helps,
