HCA: Hermit Crab Association

Not for our hermits, for our snakes! Our new girl has mites, and with all the other arachnids in the room we can't go with normal treatment methods. We may have to order predatory mites instead. I know people buy them, but I never see the companies they come from get mentioned or linked! So I'm asking - where did you order from that had healthy, successful predatory mites.

This'll also double as a way to get listings to put into our Shopping Guide for future reference.

(Also, does anyone know of places that will ship with heating pads in winter, since I think they die from freezing and it's going to be below zero the next few days and this can't really wait if we're going to do it.)

I got mine here but it's a Canadian company.

And they are now properly identified as: Stratiolaelaps scimitus

This is where I got mine.

I sprinkled some on the substrate every three or four days until the container was gone.

Oops, I sent you the wrong mite info. It was the ones below. I got the 25,000 and it was way too much for a 75 gallon tank.
