Madison your such a hippie avoiding them chemicals

I think this is something, and something to seriously consider. I do have my doubts that it's the holy grail an enthused herper might call it, as nature tends to look for a balance (whether it's 50:50 or 95:5) instead of eradication.

For a breeder, or a single pet kept in a rather easy to clean enclosure, full eradication probably is the simplest and quickest method- this means chemicals as you'd call them.

Where I"m a huge fan of these predatory mites is with animals that are kept in a natural vivaria that would otherwise be impossible to even control snake mites. In these scenerio's a balance might actually be prefered over eradication.

Just my 2bits of course

Ian
