And for all that would like to know what it is we used betadine solution mixed about and oz to a gallon of water till the water is a light tea color. 5 to 10 min in the water and the mites and eggs are gone. all i can say it i am very thank full i do the 90 day qt on all new snakes this guy was a rescue he has been here for a little over a month and last weekend mites on him guess the eggs hatched.
