I know I've read other material (which unfortunately I can no longer find) that stated that mite eggs can take up to 6 weeks to hatch depending on surrounding temperatures. If mite eggs typically only took 1-4 days to hatch, you wouldn't have so many people (myself included) who had to battle a re-infestation a month or two after their original problem. Of course with the advent of products like P.A.M it kind of makes the whole argument moot because one treatment lasts such a long time. Now you really CAN get rid of a mite infestation in one treatment whereas in the olden days (hehe, I sound like some kind of grandpa) You had to keep retreating every week for months in order to make sure you were mite free.

    Hey Bro,
    Let me know if you ever find your other material, as I would love to read it.
