Hey!

Hope you're well.
I've set up my vivarium with just the plants and substrate and the plants are acclimating well.

Unfortunately after 2 weeks I've observed that the substrate has some mites! I did my best to process the plants but the mites may have been in one of the 3 materials from the gardening shop.

As mentioned the main inhabitants for the vivarium will be pill bugs and Rainbow Stag Beetles.
I've read that the mites are nothing to be worried about as they can NOT harm the beetles or larvae or the pill bugs.

Can you weigh in on what your thoughts are regarding the mites?

Cheers,
Dennis
