what are the chances of a wild caught garter having mites?
its not something Ive given too much thought to but now im worried from reading the mites thread that my snake has mites and I just didnt know it!

I mean would I know by the looks of her for sure? .... ive never ever seen anything on her and im always handling her and the bottom of her tank is paper towels because I find it would be the best way to make absolutely sure to keep her clean at all times. if I see a poop or any discolorations on the towel I just wipe down he glass well & change them right away. And I have never seen anything even teeny weeny on her towels other than her excrement.... I really have no reason to think it other than the fact that I did catch her from the outside, and I dont know if its super common.

some ideas on the mites thing.
ways to tell if my snake has mites
lol i could just be worrying too much as usual but Id appreciate your thoughts!
thanks!
