They are primarily used for sciarid fly control but they are the defender mites that you use to get rid of pest mites.

I have used them with inverts,reps and mammals no problems, they don't need to be in soil to work, they come in like a hundreds and thousands sprinkler type thing and you just bang them in.

will they actually climb onto the millipedes to remove the mites?

thanks for the advice, just need to wait a few days now and then see how fast they do the job!
