Does the Trapper Monitor/Insect Trap TM2600 - CASE (100 traps) work for collecting mites for identification purposes?

The mites are REALLY tiny I suspect that they are fur mites from my rabbit) so not sure if this product would be helpful. The only way I've been able to catch one is that I saw it crawling on my computer screen (so it was back lit) and I used piece of tape to capture it, but would like to have another sample to evaluate

Answer:

Yes, you could try to use the trap to capture them for identification. We recommend that you contact your local cooperative extension office. Please let us know if you need anything else.
