    Yeah mites are literal DEMONS! If you want a better understanding of their life cycle here is some helpful info that goes more into depth about them.

    OP I reccomend if you can, grab a hold of Prevent-A-Mite to treat your enclosure. It kills all life stages of mites.

    Good luck! With patience and persistence I'm sure you will eradicate them! Just give it 2-3 months

    Forgot to add, since it's often overlooked;

    If you get Provent - a - mite be sure to follow the instructions when spraying. Make sure everything is 100% dry before putting your snake back in! You'd want to keep your snake in a spare tub while everything is drying, preferably in a different room for at least a day.

    PAM when wet can be dangerous to snakes so it's best not to put water bowls back in the treated cage for 2 days until everything is fully dry.
