If you can get some moth crystals at your hardware store (they must be
labeled parabdichlorobenzene). Wrap a few in aluminum foil and make a couple
pin
holes in the foil after wrapping. Place that packet in the culture on top of
the
soil surface glass or taped to the lid of the container. It will keep the
mites away.
