I have had best success, i.e. 100% elimination by dusting (carefully) with SEVIN. Just dust the entire snake with a small amount of "Sevin" powder applied with a small soft paint brush and allow the snake to move through your hands to obtain good coverage without getting a lot of dust in the nostril area. Sanitize entire cage about every 10 days for 3 times to insure that any mites that hatch are also treated.
