It's easy enough to observe something is going on with the mites' feet. Just put a few mites on a Swedish sponge treated with Randy's "experimental" dosage (50-50 : OA/Gly). The mites immediately begin a very agitated hot-foot dance, holding their legs up in the air, and clearly objecting to their present circumstance. After a few minutes, they stop moving. Unlike a mite placed on an untreated sponge which keeps on keeping on until you're tired of watching.
I guess I'm under the impression somehow that the OA decimates the bulbous tissue on the ends of their legs (whatever you want to call the anatomical structures). Yeah... I know... anecdotal... not scientific... too small a sample size... give me a break.
... whatever. It drops mites.
