So I have a friend who has a big old healthy blood python. Today he called and woke me up talking about mites and how to get rid of them. I don't have a clue because I haven't had them (thank the lord!). I can't help him. So I'm on here to gain some knowledge about mites.

He works for a pet store in the mall FYI.
I asked him when he noticed them. He said four days ago. I asked what he's done.
He said he has proventOmite, he's dipped his snake in it and sprayed. He cleaned his 30 gallon tank(I'm guessing with water and soap). I asked him what he's done recently to get these, touching other reptiles etc. he said no. I asked where he gets his food, this is what scares the crap out of me!! He said he gets them from his job. I just bought three from there n fed two smh!!!! Now I checked the rat left n he shows nothing. No scabs no bugs no nothing. I'm still peranoid!

Now I'm asking him to find out where he got his tank and if they have the same rat provider they've had always. He says they keep coming back. Any advice guys?
