whoa...that is very bad.
i've read that some scorps dunk themselves in the water dish to drown the mites. Does yours do that? |

no it doesn't. It's just plain ugly. But no, it doesn't kill them.

Mites do kill ur scorpWhen it get to its booklung if im nt mistaken (Kinda mix up mites with mycosis) QUOTE(s98432512 @ Feb 7 2009, 09:36 AM) i understand these mites will suck blood from the host animal ...........then the cyle start again and again reproduce and grew in numbers in a short time ... cause irretation to the host ... They are aiming for wateram i correct ? Basically if ur substrate are wet those mites will only be on ur substrate But if its insufficient for them they will start aiming a layer of water under ur scorp exoskeleton Correct me if im wrong |
