    I've seen these bugs on injured frogs eating the dead tissue or dead bugs.

    I read these type of mites are usually associated with bug colonies, but as soon as I began to find them I developed rashes on both my forearms up th my elbows...incidentally I wear gloves when handing my frogs crickets etc, I have lupus and take strong meds so there to protect the critters, and the rash stops where the gloves do!
    Maybe its a coincidence but its one that should send me to the store to play the lottery!
    So does anyone think my frogs/toads are in any risk?
    Ive been cleaning like a maniac so th he populations are very very low.
    thank you for all the comments and advice.
