no pest strip question

[snakeman13]

Ok so I'm fighting mites now for a few weeks with some sprays and stuff from the pet store. I did as everyone here says to do. Took out the substrate, cleaned everything and so on. Anyway, none of that worked so now I'm trying the pest strips. I want to try to make sure the room they are in is free'd of them so I left the strip whole and hung the strip in the room a few feet from the enclosure. I did this about 12 hours ago and just went to check on things but still see moving, alive mites on my snake. How long should I expect things to take doing it this way? I would just cut a piece off of the strip and put it and the snake in a small tub but ultimately the problem is still in the room and the process will just repeat itself. Maybe I'll end up doing that too but the answer I need is in regards to my current method please......Thanks in advance.

Pest strips/vapona strips work awesome.
I have them hanging in my snake rooms and rat room all the time.
I have had both snakes and rodents get mites. Nest mites on rodents are a horror.
They don't stay on the rodents. They like us too.
I tried the PAM and other stuff. Problem kept returning.
I started using the strips, problem went away and does not come back.
I have now been using this method for 5 years. No problems at all.
All snakes and rodents are clean and healthy.
It will take about a week to 10 days of exposure to the strips fumes, for all the mites to die.
The other really good thing about this method, the eggs die as well.
