This isn't directly related to RP's, but I keep many different animals, and my Fire Bellied Toads tank has acquired an infestation of mites. I have used ARDAP before for my royals, but none of their enclosures have live plants in. My FBT's tank is covered in plants and soil though!
Has anyone used either ARDAP or Provent-a-mite in a tank with live plants? I don't see why a pesticide should affect a plant, but better safe then sorry!
Cheers,

sorry can't help there. they sound like they could be substrate mites so they will be living in amongst your soil etc. you will more than likey have to empty the tank to clear them properly |

Oh, the actual toads have no problem with them - they're the small white ones that appear to be happy eating wood rather then animals..
