    The best treatment you can get is provent-a-mite from pro products as far as I know which you could order online and have shipped to you.

    The advantage it has is the fact it lasts for 30 days unlike most others and so can kill them as they hatch.

    It is important to follow the directions exactly with all treatments, in particular you do not treat the animal itself but the cage and must remove the waterbowl during the initial spray treatment.

    Seach a few topics on here about mites to make sure you do not simply have wood mites from the bedding or whatever.
