I currently treat my whole enclosure with PAM once a month as a preventative - haven't ever had mites and dont want them.

I assume that none of these mites would host on a human - is this correct.

Thanks everyone.
dustmites are not the same there is also woodmites which are also not the same.

yes mites can transfer from any herp to any herp!

pam is great to use just watch as babies and some lizards might react to it.also dont spray it where your cat or dog could get to it.

they will not host on a human but they can get on you at a show or petstore whatever and you can bring them home with you.
