Mix the two ounce (59 ml) bottle of the cream rinse with one gallon of water.
Spray the enclosure, paper substrate, and hides with the solution. DO NOT SPRAY THE WATER BOWL. Allow everything to dry completely before returning your snake to its home. Also keep a supply of treated and dried newspaper or paper towels and treated hides available so that when a snake makes a mess, you replace the soiled paper and hides with treated ones. Treat the enclosure every two to three weeks.
Do not use aspen, cypress, or other natural substrates when treating for mites, they can hide from the permethrin and keep breeding and feeding. Use treated paper towels or newspaper as substrate.
