    What mite stuff did you buy? There are a lot of different products on the market, some work better than others.

    Provent-a-Mite. Litterally works the best with probably he least amount of work. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND FOLLOW THEM. This stuff is toxic if you don't use it correctly.

    Provent a mite works but like Running Elk said it can become toxic to the snake. Go to Petco and grab some Natural Chemistry Reptile Spray. It works wonderfully and is a natural product blend, can be left on the snake and in the habitat. Spray on a cloth, wipe enclosure down and wipe snake down with it. Literally will produce a genocide of mites. Im a veterinary toxicologist and this is what I use.
