Reptile Mites 🦎

They're like finding out you have roaches in your house or lice -.- at least they're easily treated.
Found a couple on one of my Mountain horned lizards, he's been out of quarantine for awhile so my guess is that they came from some of the feeders or something? I let the shop where I get my feeders know so they can check their stock. Gave him a soapy bath and mite spray treatment along with spraying everyone else in my little collection just as a precaution. Joys of having reptiles X3
I doubt anyone else has one since they're relatively uncommon here in the states but if anyone else has Mountain horned lizards I'd love to know!
