i've never heard of a snake allergy or snake induced asthma. i have tremendous allergies to dust, mealworms, and grasses. i studied lizards in school and my bronchi would close up while cleaning lizard feces (dried mealworm exoskeletons) from their perches. one of my advisors from school did research on strike-induced chemosensory search behavior (david chiszar) and would almost die everytime he had to feed his snakes, due to rodent dander.
like doug said, bedding, rodents, mold, and dried snake feces (rodent hair) are most likely candidates. use newspaper, clean often, skin your rodents away from the house and see if this helps before giving up.
good luck,
matt
