Put a pest strip in the room and lightly coat your hands with extra virgin olive oil, then wipe your snake down with your hands, you're just trying to put a light film of the oil on your snake, and then when the mites come out from under the scales they come into contact with the oil and drown, also the pest strip in the room will kill mites and most importantly the baby mites that will hatch and repeat the cycle. And I'd leave the pest strip in the room for a couple months, maybe three.
Hope this helps, Mike Derks
