Stratiolaelaps Scimitus
Stratiolaelaps scimitus is a robust, soil-dwelling predatory mite that serves as a versatile biological control agent. Formerly known as Hypoaspis miles, these generalist predators are essential for both horticultural pest management and reptile husbandry. They actively patrol soil and substrates to hunt larval pests like fungus gnats and parasitic mites like snake mites. Because they are native to the soil, they are incredibly stable and can survive for weeks without a direct food source by feeding on debris, making them the industry standard for bioactive terrariums and greenhouse prevention.
