So a stick rotted in my linx spiders enclosure and it got mites. Not mites that harm the spider (thank god) but still ugly mites. I took the spider out and cleaned the enclosure and area I cleaned the enclosure in but my spider room still has mites around it most likely and I didn't have time to clean it. I moved all of my inverts in the garage until I can figure out how to fix this burn in worried I brought some miteninfested stuff down there. So what do you guys suggest i do cuz my mom is not very happy mites are a thing now. We have a bird and a dog and idk if they'll affect those sos

I wish you luck. Once you get a mite infestation and it establishes itself... I've tried for 10 years to control the dust mites here. Diligent vacuuming twice a week hasn't made the slightest dent. I've known people who have had commercial pest companies spray every inch of their homes. Mites return like clockwork every year.
