My common boa had mites when I bought him and this was about a month ago. I used all the sprays and soaked him many times. Even was told to use No pest strips. Took me a few weeks to take care of the mites. I havent seen any yet but he doest want to eat at all. And he already sheaded like a week ago? What should I do?

Pop in to the boa forum and make sure all other aspects of your husbandry are doing good. I never worry for about 6 weeks when a new snake comes in and they do not feed. Unless it is a baby.
