[QUOTE="Konstantin, post: 214522, member: 30996"] Hi Unfortunately for sling that small drying the enclosure for extended period will not be an option. You can try to lure them to get off the sling. You can place a small piece of veg(carrot,cucumber... ) and remove it after an hour. You may need to repeat that several times with fresh piece of veg while discarding the previous one.If that doesn't do it move the sling to dry enclosure with waterdish only for few days and try the veg in that. Once they come off the sling rehouse it in new enclosure discarding old substrate . I doubt that the mites are doing it anything rather than annoying it imo. Regards Konstantin [/QUOTE]
