Hhhhmmmm... That's very interesting.... Now the question is where could the mite eggs have come from?

They could have been stuck to just about anything coming from a pet store. I suspect mine may have been on a bag of substrate, or something, since the shop I bought it at has all of that stuff near the reptile cages. Or it is also possible that at some point I got them on my clothes and didn't even realize it...
Re: Mites?! How can this be?!
Well, I'd thought I'd update this. It's been two days and I haven't seen any more black spots. My RTB is still in QT, but so far we're looking good. I'm still confused as to how he got them, since I don't go to the pet store, I use newspaper, and no one handles my collection. Maybe they came from the wild herps around the house? Who knows. But I've treated the house the same way I treat for fleas and have PAMed everyone's enclosures, whether they needed it or not. Thanks everyone for all the ideas and help. Now let's just hope this is the last time I have to do this!
