So I ended up buying a LOT of EWC (earthworm castings) at the end of last year and kept them stored in a cool relatively dry place in black bags. They seem to be "keeping" nicely and are moist when I go to use it. My problem is I think they are contaminated with some kind of soil mites, maybe even two different kinds. On my last round of clones I had a problem with bulb mites....I did a neem drench and took care of them. This round of clones I just found I have another mite problem and I think they are a different kind. I keep a clean area, and never wear outside clothes in the area. The only way I can think of these mites getting in the soil is from the EWC that I get locally. Is this possible? Could mites survive in these bags of EWC for multiple months? I also use blood meal, bone meal, and kelp in my soil, but I am not thinking the mites are coming from them. What do you guys think?
