My friend's snake has mites, and she doesn't have the internet so I offered to do the research for her for treatments. We ordered "Prevent-a-Mite", but we were looking for other options. The mites aren't too bad, I only saw a couple on the snake. We cleaned out the viv, sprayed it all down with cleaner until the Prevent-a-Mite comes in.
Now my question is about the bathing with mild soup and the olive oil. How often do you suggest bathing the snake in lukewarm water (I have a thermometer to check water temp.) Every other day? Once a day? Twice a day? This seems to keep the mites in check very well.
We've been bathing the snake once a day, then rubbing olive oil on him (I read about doing that in some other thread...) She also put vaseline all around the edges of the viv.
