Please read my recent post on ‘’red” mites.  Book lice do feed on mold and 
fungi, but can feed on dead insects and other items as well.  Again, depends on 
species.

I think the "book lice" are said to feed off mold and fungi. The red mites just 
eat pollen and outdoor plants like clover and grass.

I was long ago told by an entomologist that the red mites are likely feeding 
off of microscopic mold, which would make sense as to why they are found in a 
humid environment.  It would be helpful if someone with greater knowledge could 
corroborate.

Correct. These are very commonly seen as Tom noted. The larvae of most are 
parasitic on arthropods; species of one genus are pollen feeders. Nymphs and 
adults are predaceous.  The pollen feeders have been known to bite people – but 
it’s only tasting, not feeding.  They can actually stay on the roof and walls 
of buildings and don’t go back to the ground.  Crushed mites do stain certain 
substrates.

These red mites are quite common crawling up the exterior of buildings and 
entering through the weep holes in the lower frames of windows.  They are 
originating in the moist leaf litter and mulch around the perimeter of the 
building.  You'll have to check with Lou, but I think they are predaceous.  The 
only damage they cause is a red smear if crushed.

Red snout mites are members of Bdellidae; this one looks more like an

There are actually many red colored mites and their natural histories differ. 
Bdellids feed on insect and mite eggs and small insects; erythraeids vary 
depending on life stage (arthropod parasites and predaceous); some soil mites 
such as oribatids can be red and feed on decaying plants, fungi, algae, 
springtails; clover mites feed on plants and can be red; some trombiculid 
adults are red and plant feeders, larvae are chiggers and are parasitic on 
various animals such as mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, some insects.
Your entomologist relied too much on a generalization.

Hello everyone,

I found this little guy (less than 1 mm) near our library, which is on the 
third floor. My first guess is that it's a mite, but since it was by our

Thank you!

I have found these too - also in Seattle. I think they are red snout mites.

Hello everyone,

I found this little guy (less than 1 mm) near our library, which is on the 
third floor. My first guess is that it's a mite, but since it was by our 
library, I wanted to be sure it wasn't something more harmful.

Thank you!

Red snout mites are members of Bdellidae; this one looks more like an 
Erythraeidae.
