hello everyone, have a quick question on mites. My wife has three box turtles, recently we found two small white insects crawling on the shell of one, they were very small (Smaller than fruit flies and cricket larva). My question is, could these be mites? I always thought they were red but I have been wrong before. any help would be great.
