OK...like most others I have battled mites, picked up from pet store, picked up at a show, ect. I also have my own full proof way of eliminating them. My question is...people call, they have one pet snake and have mites. When asked, they have not been to a pet store, have not been around any other snakes, no shows, nothing. I first think they are not telling the whole truth until it happened to someone I know very good and know he was telling the truth. In a situation like this...where is it possible for the mites to come from Can they come from husbandry issues, just magicly appear What's your thoughts?
