Baby Spiders Everywhere!!!

[mikeylazer]

Does anyone know if little baby spiders will injure my yearling leopard tortoise? They seem to be little grey baby spiders currently and i definitely dont know what species they are. I live in MD for any spider experts or people that have dealt with this before that can help! Thanks!

Hmmmm. Is your lil tort outside or inside? A few spiders shouldnt be anything to worry about..

I wouldn't worry unless they seem to be crawling all over him.

Hes inside but yeah they dont seem to be bugging him (pun intended). Ill keep an eye out though.

Is there anything left that you haven't had or worked with?[emoji1] And if those were with your torts they would still not be with your torts, as you seem to have them well contained.[emoji6]

They could be dust mites. I've had outbreaks of those before. Are you sure they are little spiders?
I would just put pill bugs in there if indoors! That works very well.
