From what I have read at pro-exotics, Hognose snakes are sensitive to anything with any chemicals in it.
When I was faced with mites on my blue garter, I went to the pet store and I read all the labels carefully.
I purchased the zoo med for the fact that it's active ingredient is mild enough that I could spray it into my own eyes without harm. (Sodium Laurel sulfate) same as shampoo and only 0.1 % at that.
The other products had some stuff in there that was straight up bug poison, and I am not comfortable spraying poison on my animals.
The zoo med spray works, the mites are gone
Good luck, Wayne A. Harvey
