    Mite question...

    hey everyone! i have a bunch of indoor plants, some baby plants have spider mites. I was wondering if those types of mites that thrive off of plants could find their way into my snakes tank and try to live off of her. Ive never had mites with my snake so im kinda unfamiliar with the situation. I'm just trying to be preventative if its necessary. Thanks a bunch!!

    Hi,

    No they should be completely different types of mites and shouldn't be able to live off the snake.
