Yes, I'm almost 100% percent sure that they came from that rodent. You might wanna buy some pest strips cause mites lay eggs. Some people use Black Knight or Provent something I forgot but I've always had excellent results with pest strips. Just follow the directions on the back. People say that it's hazardous to the snake but Black Knight and that other spray are just as hazardous if not used correctly. Whatever you decide to use, follow the directions carefully.
