I just noticed lots and lots of small white round insects crawling throughout the soil in my tegu's enclosure. I recently changed all the dirt after it had been in there for a year and it was drying out. I used the same mixture as last time from the same places. 2 big bags of sphagnum peat moss from a local organic store, only one bag had a tear in it. The other was a organic bag of topsoil from lowes. I wetted the dirt a lot when I put it in there so the humidifier I had hooked up to my hygrometer would not be blasting and on so often as it was before. Anyways the humidity stay between 80 and 90%, the soil is not wet not but it is moist. I also have two plants of just normal grass inside the cage. I am trying to identify these insects to see if they are beneficial or not. I do not see any damage to Yoshi (my tegu), nor do I see any damage on the two plants. I will provide pictures asap, but I was wondering how bad this could be?
