I think mites are creeper than spiders (because of their fat round bodies I guess) Good shot Ken. You should try and isolate one on a slide.

Thanks Doug :D , it would be hard to keep one on a slide but it could be done I imagine. They move pretty quick, I just happened to catch this one still for a moment and I really wish he were in a better place so more of it could be seen but you have to take what you can get sometimes. :)
