Mites/Brumation Advice Needed!

Hi Everyone!

I've got a bit of a dilema, and was hoping to get some advice from people here!

We've got a room of snakes brumating, and all our snakes not brumating are in the living room. We've found mites on the snakes in the living room.

Should we just treat the ones that aren't brumating, or treat the ones that are brumating as well? Is it safe to treat brumating snakes? (using the Nix treatment solution)

Or should we just treat the non-brumating ones now, and then treat everyone again once brumation is over? We haven't seen any mites on the brumating ones, but haven't handled them since they cooled off (beginning of November)

Also, nix treatment is safe for baby snakes right?

Any and all advice is greatly appreciated!

Thanks so much!
