Mites are invading...send help quickly! - 2008/03/08 13:37
All has been going well with my bins until today....MITES! And I mean a bunch of 'em. After reading through past mite topics on the forum I've put together a plan of action. Am I on target here?
*take bins outside for a couple of hours.
*remove all visable food
*add fresh dry bedding
*no feeding for a week or so
Sound like a plan? I can't believe how many of these little suckers there are! I opened one bin and they were all over me in a few seconds. I plan on giving all 5 of my bins (rubbermaids) the same treatment since I have them stacked in close quarters and I suspect the mites have gotten in all of the bins.
Any more advice?
