If you remove the waterbowl, and clean up any remains from T meals, the mites will die. Or, they could migrate to another enclosure, so if you have a large collection, this might not be a good method. I have had them migrate, but I had room to isolate the problem after noticing it. Drying them out works, though.</p></blockquote><p></p>
