Yes, it's mites. Get it to a vet.

right now im soking them.but i have 10 other pictus geckos and beardies and frillies i just got the snakes that have the mites yesterday.the couple mites i saw on them are gone drown now can i get black knight or something like that and spray my collection?

To begin with, I would totally clean their tank, Then get a little piece of that sticky paper you hang on your ceiling to catch flies, place it in a small plastic camera film tub with holes in it so as to let the bugs/mites in, but to keep the snake out. Leave it in there for 24 hrs & repeat I think its about once a week for 2-3wks. As well as getting her to a vet. Someone PLEASE corrwect me if I am wrong on this one, but this is only what I have read.

ok i was told by someone to use VAPOMA from canadian tire for killing the mites but i don't want to hurt or kill my collection i know i would have to move my crickrts but does anyone know if it would be harmfull to my reps?I looked for black knight but could not find it anywhere.Any other help or ideas would be great.i heard nix kids lice shampoo works.Thanks in advance

only thing i have used is nix, and that worked for me. not sure about vapoma...havent tried it. do get your snake out of its enclosure right away, and into a fresh one with paper towel as substrate.
