No mites here but theres always a chance of getting some extra pesty riders on new arrivals .Black Knight was dangerous to neo's so I formulated an older remedy to be much more effective .Ofcourse as always this is just what I use and is perfectly safe when used correctly .Whether you choose to use this is totally up to you and I hold no liability (nor does the boaphille )  Heres a simple formula that I use . 10 cc's of 1% liquid Ivomec mixed with 60 cc's Propylene Glycol in a quart spray bottle topped off with plain tap water . The Ivomec and Propylene Glycol should be mixed first then add water  .Ivomec and water has been used with success however adding the propylene glycol evenly distributes the Ivomec and breaks the surface tenison making it much more effective . Do not use any stronger form of Ivomec than the 1%!  The mix is sprayed directly on the snake after the water bowl has been removed . MAKE VERY SURE YOU DO NOT GET THIS IN THE WATER !!!! or spray in the snakes mouth Spray daily until all mites are dead . This isn't a replacement for provent a mite but can be used in concert with it .
