fecal remains

[chuck]

my vicious L.parahybana has left a lovely mess for me on the side of her tank (the side she never leaves)
will her crap attract any unwanted guests? or are the mites picky on what they like to eat?

The fecal remains from T's do not attract pests, at least not from our experience. The feces are the calcified matter that the spider could not metabolize. Pest problems usually come from over-wet substrate and uneaten prey remains.
