To treat the actual snake (in addition to treating its environment with PAM,) you can do a Dawn dishsoap/water bath. Get a tub that your snake will fit in.. put a few inches of water in so that it is nice and soapy with bubbles floating.. place the snake in and monitor Closely to be sure that it will not drown.. the mites come off of the snake and can be seen in the water and soap foam. You don't want to use water that is too hot nor cold; water that's the temp of your water dish in its tank, or slightly warmer, will do. What feels warm to us, can be too hot for them; water the same temp as that in its tank would be no worse than the snake soaking in its waterbowl (which they are wont to do when they have mites.) Rinse snake in clean water afterward, and towel him/her off.
Congrats for using PAMite; it is a wonderful product! I never remember spraying it right onto the snake at all; more like into the cage; follow directions closely.
