Hello, just wondering how long I should quarantine new blue death feigning beetles before adding them to my established community. 90 days like for snakes? Are there any mites or other parasites to keep an eye for?

I'm not sure I've heard of people quarantining their BDFB's before. I know some come in with parasitoids but I dont know how long to wait is safe.
