I had purchased a baby sunglow boa and after I checked her out (she came from an online dealer so I let her rest after the shipping) she definitely has mites.
Now, I have owned snakes in the past, but do not have any other reptiles besides her and the ball python I got in the same order. I also have never had a mite infestation and am quite anxious!
I had just found out about the mites a few hours ago and am taking some preventative measures, such as soaking and trying to hand-remove any mites
Now she isn't crawling with them, but I can only imagine how many are hiding on her.
Since I have not had a mite issue ever before, how would I take steps for her? I have a scale and can weigh her to make sure that she isn't going to get too exposed to any sort of treatment.
Also I am wanting to not handle her/take her outside and do a very strict quarantine of both her and the ball python.
