Thank you so much! I was feeling like the end of the world and feel so sorry for him and also putting risk on my other two snakes. I just move one of them to the kitchen but there's no door of the kitchen... another one on the opposite of the boa in the room... Sadly I live in a studio....May I know where did you get the Provent-A-Mite? I believe I have wait for days buying them online... Hoping there's a store somewhere... My new tub tools will come tomorrow and I'll move him there, hope it could help keep a 65-80 humidity with paper towel... Thank you so much!!!

It's true surinames as well as any other boa need a good humidity but i wouldnt call it high. I keep all my snakes between 65-80% depending on the day and season. A couple months of lower humidity isnt going to kill your snake but a million mites feeding on your snake will.

Just relax. While mites suck, they arent the end of the world and pretty much anyone who has kept snakes for years has dealt with it at least once. Usually bringing home an unwanted hitchhiker is the culprit. That is what it was for me.
