So my girlfriend came home the other day with a ballpython. Un beknownst to me the thing was crawling. Now It is in the same room with my green trees however i havent seen any mites on them. That being said i feel i should treat everything just incase.

In my arsenal I currently have,

Jurassi Mite Spray
Provent A Mite
Zoo Med 8.75 oz Mite Off

I am also considering fighting fire with fire.

Mites that prey on other mites, does anyone have an experience with these? Any other suggestions are welcome.

Thanks, Sean
