All of the above will likely kill off the adult mites that are present on a snake. The problem is that they won't get the eggs. The eggs have a protective shell on them and those products can't get through that and kill the eggs. Mites have a 30 day cycle so you may well get rid of them today but hello guess who is back next month.

Get the P.A.M. use it exactly as directed (it does NOT go directly on the snake). Disinfect and clean the rack, treat it with P.A.M., lay down pure white papertowels as substrate so you can watch for any return of the mites. QT in the future and be careful of bringing home mites with you from snake shows and you should be fine.
