Default Mites in my Springtail cultures?

Is it disaterous to have mites in your springtail culture? Seems to be quite a few of them. Unless it is something else, not really sure myself. Little white ball looking things walking around. I assume the froglets can eat them?

Yes and no. Mites won't harm your culture or the froglets, but they can get out and infest other cultures.

Ask in the Food section next time.
