While doing my cleaning routine I noticed white little fluffy oval specs all over the terrarium and specially under the moss I had around the terrarium as well. I removed most of the moss and continued to see what they were, plus I came across a few mites crawling around. I believe I am infestated with the mites that feed on snail's blood. If so, will "Hypoaspis Miles - Predatory Mites" kill them off including the eggs? How would I use the product? ibb.co/g92sT73

Are the mites walking around the terrarium or are they just on the snails? If they're walking on the terrarium they might not be the bloodsucking Riccardoella. Either way, a picture would be helpful.

Saw only like a few, hardly really walking on the terrarium or it's just my eyes but I do see them mostly on the bodies of the snails. ibb.co/Mfpf2Q0

Mites walking on the snails is a big problem, even if they aren't Riccardoella, it's not a bad idea to buy some predatory mites. You simply have to let them wander free in the substrate and they will find and kill the parasites without bothering the snails.
