Baby crickets eat mites... right?

[Wolvie56X]

just wondering if the rumors are true, i had a mite problem in my Vietnamese Centipede tank, then yesterday i noticed some baby crickets running around in there, dont see anymore mites, then again i dried the tank out to kill the mites as well

from my stand point, seems they work, you guys?

I can't really see them not eating the mites, they are ravenous little beasts.

Also, don't rule out the possibility that you mistook really small cricket nymphs for mites.. and now those nymphs are just big enough to be easily recognizable baby crickets.

I've heard of that happening.

I could definately see that happening. Although mites are usually really slow.
