Hi guys, im Miguel and im new in this forum.

The reason i entered this forum is because i need some help! Im a rookie in snakes, i have my first snake now. Its a albine corn snake and i just love it! I really have a good relationship with her!

But she has this little black bugs on her, i try to search for things but couldnt find it! I washed her just five minutes ago in warm water and try to took the bugs out! Most of them are gone but i fear it will happen again and i fear it can be dangerous for her.

Can someone help me to understand what are those things and what i should do?

Thanks!

Ask at the pet store where you got the snake for products to remove mites, theres a good chance they have some
