Thank you all for your great advice but I have some terrible news. I was taking out Monty out for a little checkup because I knew he was going to shed soon(I wanted to know what a snake close to shedding feels like) and I found two mites on him. I quickly got some warm water into his future tub(yes it was thoroughly cleaned before this) and plopped the snake in. In 20 minutes of soaking I found another mite in the water. After that I collected the now three mites into a jar and closed it. Next, I thoroughly washed out the tub and it's lid and made a little flower pot hide, got a new little bowl of water and placed paper towl as bedding. I will be following GoHerping's mite guide(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnJqt9Up2eI) to get the mites as soon as I can out of the original enclosure. Now, my question. I heated up my room to about 82 degrees(F) so it doesn't go below 78 degrees at night. How long will my snake be ok without a heat pad?I will order the spray(from the video) tonight so it might only come in a day or two. Any other advice? I'm so dissapointed because I was just going to start a feeding schedule with him and I find mites.
