So I’ve had one of those clip on your cellphone 60x scopes for awhile but just recently got a good enough phone to really appreciate what the scope could do.
I chased what I hope to be a fungus gnat or maybe sicariad fly around last night until I caught him on a sticky card. Upon inspection I found 3 mites hitching a ride. My garden is pretty healthy so I don’t think they’re anything to worry about but I couldn’t find anything like them on the internet.
Here’s a couple videos.. pretty good display of how goddamn small mites are.

For the record since I’ve been running around scoping everything I’ve found so many different mites.. most I’ve been able to find similar with enough searching on the internet. They are literally everywhere.
