Do a Google search on "grain mites", that is probably what they are.
I had them last year, you have to remove the sources of food.
They will not infest herps, they are there for the grain.

hey!
I think i got rid of ALL my white mites! i hope i did! heres what i did, first clean out ALL the tanks that you have that are infested with them stupid mites. After you washed them out put them in ur bathtub and fill them with HOT water let the hot water run until it overflows the tank for at least 5 mins (to kill any eggs or mites on the outside) and let it sit for 20 mins. After that just rinse it out and make a 1 part bleach and 20 parts water solution, put that in a spray bottle and spray the area where the mites are. Be sure to get it in your carpet as well! Let that dry out for another 20 mins and vaccuum. After that spray the area one more time and let it dry and voila, all the mites should be gone.

Hope this works for you.



Thanks,
Ben
