My beardie seems to have some small, clearish bugs running around him and his cage. I managed to snag one with some tape and put it under the microscope...
It is my understanding that mites are red, then black as they suck blood, so I am not sure what these bugs are. Does anyone know what they are and if they are harmful?
They are harmless, and their rapid reproduction due to me spraying my beardie (getting other things wet) makes perfect sense as well. That said, I still completely cleaned his cage and will be leaving it empty for a few days. I soaked his wood and other things in soapy water, then regular water, and now they are drying.
Yup, that's a booklouse. They're pests but not all that bad - they certainly won't hurt your dragon. I would advise not spraying him in his tank, because too much humidity can cause respiratory infections.
