Substrate in heat pits

Hi everyone,
The substrate (eco earth) got stuck in my snake's heat pits. To get rid of it she rubbed her face in the ground more and got more of it in there.
Should I just leave it alone or try to do something about it?

i have no experience with this, but i guess a standard bath, just water, should do the job. as you describe it, it seems to annoy the snake. but maybe it dries out and falls out on its own.

is your snake head shy? but then, i guess, even if not, once you start messing with dirt inside the heat pits, it may well turn head shy.

Id say a bath,maybe take a spray bottle and mist it's face and if it's not head shy then try to get something to pull it out

Never poker around in a pythons heat pits. Head shy or not u snake will go nuts. Just at bath will suffice

How about doing nothing?

Anyone have any experience with doing that?

That's MADNESS! You can't do that! Something has to be done or the snake will explode! In all seriousness. As long as it isn't moldy substrate, I wouldn't worry about it.

It will dry and fall out on its own.
