i agree, has been discussed very often.
i would say dont use stuff directly on the snake. Baths in clean fresh lukewarm water drown mites on the snake, products can take care of the enclosure and surroundings.
read some threads about the same topic, and relax a bit, its not that urgent. Its urgent if you have 20 of them on your snake, or if you have several snakes/reptiles and roaming mites could carry something from one reptile to the others. They reproduce quickly but you still have days to plan what to do, and if you just clean enclosures and move affected reptiles in a different room you can bring it under control for one or several weeks without using any chemical club. Just dont panic. research, then give us more data, then act when you are confident.
whats the specifics on the husbandry, do you have pictures, what other reptiles do you keep, can you move some to a different room temporarily, etc, and so on.... There are stickies here containing lists of questions you should answer for the experts here to be able to help you. Calm down, research up, clean enclosures, fight the mites 2 days from now with confidence and knowledge.
