How do you use Provent a mite without harming your snake?

By following the directions on the can EXACTLY!

Read the can...but basically that means:
1. Cleaning the cage out
2. LIGHTLY spraying the new substrate
3. Letting it dry completely
4. Venting out any left over fumes
5. Replacing your snake in the clean and treated tub.

But just to make sure and clarify...read the can.

So it will be okay for a BP like 3 or 4 months old? Poor guy is always in his water dish, good thing its not a bad case of mites, but I think it may get worse soon, now all I need is for the darn thing to come in the mail!

Yea just follow the direction very closely and don't be in a rush.

haha oh yeah for sure. Is it okay though if Spartan is always in his water dish, like I know for sure he has mites but he was in it all morning.

Make sure you also remove the water dish before you treat the cage...kind of a no brainer to me...but just thought I'd throw that out since no one else mentioned it.

Excessive soaking is a clue to mites/humidity/shedding/heat problems My spider soaks after a meal its his thing. But yea excessive soaking is a clue that something is a miss.
