    Another thing, if it is mites, make sure that you take out all his decorations. If they're wood, bake them, everything else bleach overnight to drown the darn things.

    Here's a couple pics of some I caught in the waterbowl for a Q-tined baby I purchased from a local last year.

    Definitely mites..they are sitting in one of the depressions on some paper towel, to give you some reference to size. I just used the macro lens to take the pic.

    I know what ticks look like. These are adult, blood engorged, and somewhat flattened (because I wiped them out of the water bowl) snake mites. They can get up to about 1.3 mm.
