My baby has mites :'(

[Zombie]

Well I proceeded to take out everything in the tank. I threw away his plant because that could easily be replaced. I soaked his hide and water dish in a bleach/water solution for 20-30 mins. I soaked the baby in warm water with a drop of Dawn while I did everything. I got out the substrate and also used a vaccuum to make it more thurough. I then wiped down the whole tank with bleach/water solution, let it sit and then wiped it clean and dry.

I decided to go with newspaper, so that's in there now along with hide and water dish that I rinsed with a jet of very hot water. I rinsed off the baby with warm water and then dried him off. I placed him back in his tank where he then balled up. Poor snake

As I had feared, I found mites in the snake's water and the water that I soaked his hide/water dish in. It looks like there are a lot of little ones. I will repeat this everyday and order that PAM asap. Thanks for the help peeps. I feel a lot better now that I've done atleast something. I'll post my progress in this thread and hopefully it'll get better.

Mite off does work pretty well for treating the snake itself. I use it for the snake and PAM for the enclosure. Hope everything works out for you
