There are some long threads on the latching issue. it seems like there isn't a 100% reliable method. From what I've read, its probably best with a BP to wait it out. The fact that you're not dealing with a possible fatality eliminates the need to try any drastic measures.
Believe me, you do NOT want to wait it out... If it's a feeding strike, they will continue to bite, and constrict, until they don't feel a pulse. In just the 5-7 minutes I let mine stay latched on before I started untwisting her my entire hand was cold/numb, tingly, and was tingly for several hours after.
