poppet2 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 I think you mean the Red Spider Mite Wex ? That's them, but the ones in my cardboard egg box are just as small, in fact maybe smaller, but black and barely visible to the human eye. So what are mine in my egg box?

rothschild Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Could it be silverfish? These tiny mites are also found in flour. I think it might be something to do with the glue in the flour bags. They are harmless though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliceBB Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 As long as they haven't bored through the eggshells and started on the contents, I wouldn't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francypants Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 They sound like weevils to me. ( Not to be confused with Weebles !) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poppet2 Posted December 24, 2013 Author Share Posted December 24, 2013 Paper lice? Having looked them up, that is a very good possibility. However, when I have transferred them to a plastic egg box, they still appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
