Take out all of your substrate and use paper towels. If you use any real or fake wood decorations, take them out and wait for the P-A-M to come to treat them. Give the snakes a larger water bowl that they can fit in so they can try to drown off some of the mites. That is about all you can do.

If you ordered it from Pro-products, I would think you should get it by Monday. It will be coming from New York. I would suggest using paper towel for a substrate. That way you can change it out easier everyday or so. You can also try putting about a 1/2 inch of water in a tub and letting your snake swim in that fror a few minutes. That will also help drown off any mites. There is also this stuff called Reptile Relief, I think. I used it the very first time I had a mite out break to help get some off of the snake, but it isn't a permanent solution. I've only had one outbreak because I treat my enclosures every 30-45 days with P-A-M to prevent another outbreak...
