They should have some mites!! Those larger ones actually help clean inbetween their legs! If they are SO overrun its just gross Ill pick off a bunch with tweezers. Otherwise I leave em be.

I guess there are some that are just tiny that arent good. But Ive never run into those yet.

predatory mites are always an option but i have no idea what affect it would have on the millie, (im not a pede guy) But i thought i would just try to help.
