Re: maybe mites?

ah *%&^ i knew it was mites i seen,but still never found anything after checking several time a day and each snake cage nothing until today. well i clean all my cages 2 time a week and spot clean when ever needed ,and today i finnaly found a victim, i found mites on one of my womas, not many but they are mites. i washed her off and got her in quarentined, i then pulled every snake out, washing my hands after handling each snake, and found 1 mite on 3 other snakes and noticed 1 on the wall of my adult jags cage, just a fresh hatchling, still clear and color and very small.... so the cages are all washed down spotless hides and bowls all cleaned , snakes that where found with a mite are out of the room didnt see any other mites on them just 1 each - the woma she had a few adult stuck under her scales,so now should i treat them all at this point they were not close to each other so im thinking if 3 snakes in diffenent spots of the room had a mite on them then its possible eggs have been layed outside the womas cage already. the woma had black adult mites like i found in the adult jags water that day all the other mites i found today. i dont get how i found adult mites in the water and found nothing on any snake and in any cage and now today doing another check while cleaning just to because im dumbfounded to what i seen the other day with nothing found after or up till today.....now i find like 6 on the little woma barried under a couple scales and only 1 or so on the other 3 .........im off to get treatment now.
