Observation
Remotus notices these nearly microscopic pests with ease. Clover mites are tiny, reddish-brown arachnids, often no bigger than a pinhead. They are most active in early spring and fall and can be found on windowsills, walls, and other surfaces, especially where they are attracted to well-fertilized lawns and plants. Remotus advises you to look for their tiny, red streaks that appear when they are crushed.
Outlook
Remotus understands that clover mites, while harmless to humans and pets, can become a significant nuisance when they invade homes in large numbers. They do not bite or cause structural damage, but their presence can be overwhelming, and they can stain surfaces if crushed. Remotus recommends taking action to control their population, particularly if they are entering your home in large quantities. Treatment usually takes a few weeks, involving sealing entry points, reducing outdoor vegetation, and applying insecticides if necessary to manage their population.
Gateways
Remotus knows how they infiltrate. Clover mites typically enter homes through tiny cracks in walls, around windows, and under doors. They are especially drawn to the sunny side of buildings, where they gather in large numbers and may migrate indoors. Remotus suggests sealing cracks and gaps, removing grass and vegetation from around the foundation, and using barriers to keep these pests from invading your home.
