my millipedes have suddenly developed white mites (theirs are black), and my smaller millipede has his head tucked in , for a few days now, and he wont uncurl. Sometimes he writhes around as if he is in pain. Theres a small white bump where he has his head tucked. Is this a parasite?? I dont want to remove it, since I dont want to accidently hurt him. Can anyone help??

If it is mites I'd remove the millipedes to a sterile dry container with only a shallow water dish.
Mites tend to thrive in very damp conditions.
Good luck
