lovebugfarm Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 So i raise many things includeing african soft fur rats in thier bin theres a small nearly microscopic mite that looks like white moveing dust. I clean thier tank every 2-3 weeks but they always come back and theres tons of them and they get everywhere. They dont seem to be present in my rat cages only asfs. Any idea what they could be? The asfs are in good health nice fur not scratching so it seems the mites dont bite them their just present. Any suggestions would be helpfull.

UncommonRoachBoy Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 http://www.roachforum.com/index.php?showtopic=6505#entry36916 Look at that. Helps with roaches but for your case, im unsure on what will be reliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
