Thanks Amy, somehow in all my reading I missed the 10 week part, and was remembering it being much less -

I have a question regarding grain mites! I have been using what bran that I buy bulk at my local grocery store. I freeze all of it before using it, a minimum of 24 hours, sometimes even longer depending on when I actually need to use it. I moved my colony in a three tier set up from inside the house to outside in the garage for the summer. They have been in the garage since the temps have been warm enough....at least since May since the garage is insulated (but unheated) and holds it's temperature pretty well. Today I noticed tiny microscopic flecks moving around on the outside on my 3 bin set up...they are all over the place. Are these grain mites? If so, what do I do, are they bad enough I need to completely start all over again? Will they harm the chickens if I just feed everything out to them to get rid of them and start over? I also store my extra bags of chicken feed in the garage, maybe about 6 feet away from the meal worm set up, do I need to worry about the grain mites transferring to the bags of feed and scratch? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Happy 4th of July!
The mites probably came from the chicken feed.

So how bad are the mites? Do I need to start over with my colonies? Will they harm the chickens?
I'd Pick out the worms and put them in new bran inside give the old to the chickens move the feed out of the garage and bug bomb the garage. you'll need a new bin for the worms till you clean the mites out of the old. How many worms do you have ?
