We also have tarantulas in the same room so anything to treat the whatever they ares can't hurt them.
As Aleesha has allready said i doubt that its a mite.Do you by chance have any houseplants in your home? It kinda sounds like a aphid(plant bug).See if you can catch it and place it in a zip lock bag and have someone(vet or such) place it under a microscope and find out what it really is.Let us know if you find out.
Re: Help!! Is this mites?
If im not mistaken aphids are green.
Re: Help!! Is this mites?
you're not mistaken... they are green.
i think spider mites are white though. those are plant spider mites... not snake mites :P
