I have found them last thursday. Began treating immediately.

I have been soaking my snakes on an every three day bases and spraying them with Reptile Relief before each soak. So far only two have been loaded. First soaking yielded only a few from each snake in my collection, minus the two. Soaking from today yielded less then before. I have been soaking each snake for about an hour or so.

As for cage treatment, all are cleaned with dish soap and hot water. Then sprayed with Prevent A Mite, dried then bedded with paper and a quick spray down the center of each bin. Once dry snake is placed back in. Each rack was taken on and hose down, dried then spayed with Prevent A Mite, and well vented.

Does this seem like a good treatment regiment for ridding of the mites?

Thanks for Your Imput
