    How to remove specifically stuck mites

    (this is a question not a guide; I forgot the ?)

    Recently found poor Monty soaking with evidence of foreign invaders. I've cleaned out his tank, everything is replaced and sterilized, waiting on PAM to arrive (using Reptile Spray for now). Gave him a reptile spray bath (using a paper towel to get it on him) and there remain a few pesky mites on his lower jaw and neck I cannot seem to shake (either they're dead and stuck or they're feisty.)

    I was wondering how I would remove specific mites that seem to be 'stuck'. Would I just keep trying with the spray/paper towel/soaking or would I physically try to pull them off? I'm not sure the method here and can't find anything on it.


    Really bad photo of 2 of the stuck mites. I think there is another one on his neck somewhere under.
