[QUOTE="Konstantin, post: 178234, member: 30996"] Hi I will be very careful with those sprays as they can do more harm than good to the tarantulas you have. Mites are moisture dependent try to dry out the enclosures you have with not moisture dependent species of tarantulas.In the rest add spring tails they should outcompete the mites for food.Up your cleaning routine as far as food remains and boluses. Most mites are not harmful anyway. I had grain mites explosion in my feeder tubs but with upped husbandry they are under control but still present . Im not that bothered about it anymore Try posting a close pic of the water bowl or the mites themselves someone may be able to unidentify what sp they are. Regards Konstantin [/QUOTE]
