I wish I lugged my macro lens with me for that red mite. I found these on a 6 mile hike up one of the bluffs on the side of the Mississippi river. Next time I find one I'll bring it home for a macro photoshoot. They are really fuzzy.

Also I need a large plush pillow in the shape of one of these red mites lol.

I see those small regular (I guess) on the plants around at this time of the year. A true infestation in some places! But they are not fuzzy.

Now you are talking! :D
That would be so cool.

Yeah the little teeny tiny ones are always on my balcony eating my plants. I think they are red spider mites Tetranychus urticae.

Yeaa I have those on my balcony too sometimes. They make the damage even if I don't see them.
