Mojave had mites, is he safe now?

[sho220]

I bought male Mojave about 3.5 weeks ago and it did have mites, I used a NIX and water solution (diluted) and sprayed the snake as per the guide, I also treated the other one which I didn't see mites (its a female lesser) and havent seen any at all on her.

The Mojave no longer (after 3 treatments) has any visible mites on him (dead or alive) and I have not seen any little black dots on the paper towel that I am using in his tank either. This is the way it has been for 2 weeks now.

so after 3.5-4 weeks, should it be safe to put him in the rack with my other snakes now?

If you haven't seen mites for two weeks, I'd think you are good to go in that regard. However, 4 weeks isn't a long enough quarantine period for a healthy mite-free snake, much less, one you received with mites. I'd quarantine the new additions for at least 3 months...preferably 6 months...the longer the better...
