Just bought a desert scorpions (Urodacus Yaschenkoi ).
Question: I’m worried about mites, I’ve had the 30x30x30 tank with the scorpion in it for a month and I’ve been misting a few times a day. I’ve been reading up about a lot of people having mite problems. My scorpion eats super clean, doesn’t leave much behind but it’s recently dug a borrow and I want to make sure it’s as clean as possible. Pet store said it was a few months old so it’s not very big. At first I used bark off a tree in the yard and some dried leaves and sticks, but I’ve taken all that out now from fear of mites? Simple is best?
-How many times do I mist a day and where do I mist?
-I need to maintain humidity but will this attract mites even if there are no dead insects in the terrarium?
Thanks heaps everyone
