Pythons have heat sensing pits around their mouths, boas don't, so the temp of the f/t isn't critical. Main thing is to get it warm enough to give off a good scent. If warming it up a bit doesn't do it try dropping it briefly into really hot (heat to boiling in the microwave) water.

The key is briefly. Last time I tried this I ended up with properly broiled rat!
