About the mites, it's
Sevin dust, not 7, and what Kathy Loves
The Corn Snake Manual says to do is to literally dust your snake in a bag using the stuff. Also, make sure that before you place your snake back in his/her cage that you have removed all substrate and soak the cage and anything else in the cage in a 10% liquid chlorine and water solution to get rid of other mites and eggs hiding in the cage. Replace the bedding, and you should be fine.
