I just don't know if I feel comfortable having the risk of exposing my other two to mites - given how easily they spread.

I appreciate this information regardless - it's good to know just incase.

I hope you are both having a good weekend by the way!

Another thing- mites can be vectors for serious diseases in snakes- so even if the mites are gone, the risks may not be. I think you're smart to pass on them. And you're welcome.
