    Mites on a small snake can be deadly pretty fast. Bathe him in water w/ drop of Ivory/Dawn soap (not so deep that he's swimming) & STAY right there with him, don't let him drink any. Do that for about 20 minutes or so...actually, you might want to do this twice, first with plain water so he CAN drink, then with soap to drown as many mites as possible.
