Hey guys
So i've had my first emperor scorpion for about 4 months now and i've noticed for a while now there's little mites in his enclosure, I've googled around a bit and got some info on it but I'm not sure what can be classified as good mites and what as bad mites, as the pictures they show all seem to be under a microscope and I'm just judging based on my eyes.
So firstly there's the little white specs that runs around in the enclosure, I think they are harmless, as when I dry out the enclosure they disappear but when I dampen the enclosure again the appear, they dont really crawl ontop of the scorp, just in between the substrate and they tend to flock to left over food, which I then remove. Can anyone correct me if they're not harmless?
The other type i've noticed is little greyish dots on the scorpion itself, there's quite a few of them bundled around the scorp, at first I didnt think much of them as some google results said that they're just cleaning him,etc, but lately it seems like he's itching and he seems restless. I can try and take photo's if needed and any input on which is bad and which not will help.
