OKAY, so mites. Someone stole my wallet a couple days ago and I have literally had the worst week ever. In any case, I noticed my Banana spider has a couple mites on him! Long story short, I freaked out, betadine bathed him and practically set his old enclosure on fire. Vacuumed like 500 times, disinfected everything everywhere- I almost considered repainting the walls. I am just freaking out. People are telling me water alone won't kill them but I don't have any money to buy the relief for him because my wallet was taken! I am so upset I could just die. I still see mites under his scales and it's just breaking my heart. If they are just dead and still under there are they okay to just be there? I am so sorry to freak out, I am just having the worst, worst week. I put him in an entirely new enclosure my grandmother brought over for me (tub) and she gave me a couple dollars to buy a baby heating pad. But I don't have a credit card for the online ordering crap.
