Ok yes she could get mites.When everyone says PAM they mean Pro-vent-a mite.No DO NOT PLACE your snakes in soapy water ever.If you buy some PAM(AKA pro-vent-a mite) it should get rid of them as long as you follow the instructions.I would just treat the substrate just with the PAM,DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY on the snake though.
