Prevent a mite is working great with the mites I have on my rainbow boa. reptile relief is another product that claims is perfectly safe for reptiles, though I haven't used it myself.

what subtrate are you using? Change it to newspaper right away and give your snake a large bowl to soak himself usually they dont like the mites crawling around them and you'll see them in water all the time. You can also use a product call mite off check your local pet store if they have one if not you can order it online in the net.

Good luck man
