    10% Permithrin works great on ALL kinds of mites...... rodent mites, snake mites, wood mites, etc. Dilute 1-2oz per gallon and you can mist this mixture from a garden sprayer right on your animals and enclosure. There are no fumes to deal with such as with PAM.

    Just remove water dishes for 24 hours so they don't rinse it off their body in the water dish. A 32oz bottle of 10% Permithrin is available at any Tractor Supply store for less than $20. That goes way farther than PAM or any other mite treatment product. You will find it in the horse supply section at Tractor Supply.

    My rodents had mites last summer. Treated 3 times 3 days apart and they were gone.

    Let your snakes soak in their water dishes after treatment when you replace the water dish the next day. Drain the water through a coffee filter after a day or so and you should see plenty of dead mites on the filter
