Urgent Mite Advice Required
I noticed a small 'mite track' on the condensation on one of my spiderling containers.
On closer inspection i have now found that most of my spiderlings have mites around their fangs and mouth parts.
I have read that a weak 'washing-up liquid' solution can be used with a small brush to remove the mites. I have never held and of my spiders and as they are all still spiderlings the prospect of doing this worries me.
Has anyone here had a similar problem? How do i get rid of these little things?
I am a worried, please help.
