Yes, you MUST remove the water from your tank.

You need a certain type of program to do this. I use Paint Shop Pro. But, you need something like that as far as I know.

I clean the cage and everything in it with bleach water, and then I dry it out.
I put my Boas in a Rubbermaid tub and sprinkle Sevin dust 5% (NOT THE 10%!) on them. I let it set overnight, then I give my Boas a warm bath to
clean them off. I also put a light dusting of Sevin dust 5% in the cage and leave it in for about 1 or 2 weeks. Then I clean the cage one more time
with bleach water to get all the Sevin dust and DEAD MITES out.
During this two week period I also change the water daily.
This way the reptiles will have fresh, clean water to drink every day.
I know some people say Sevin dust is not safe for your Boas,
but I have had nothing but good luck with this.
I have had boas since 1979, and have not had any bad experiences from this.

You can buy Sevin dust at any lawn and garden store or home improvement store.
