I do throw the mouse in its cage, I know im not supposed to, but I do. There are little black bugs crawling around on the snake. There are dead black bugs in the water dish. They only started appearing after my snakes last meal.

Had the mouse been with another snake at all? As said above there is no way a mouse would be carrying snake mites

Im really not sure. The mouse could have went in with another snake, i got it from my pet store.

There are little black bugs in the cage. How do I get rid of them? If they arnt mites, what else could it be?
