I don't believe this belongs in the category "pesticide" So I will remove the reference.

[edit] Merge
Shouldn't Mite be merged into Acarina and not the reverse? All mites are Acarina, but not all Acarina are mites (see ticks). It would therefore make more sense to expand the Acarina article and merge the mite one into it. --IronChris 18:32, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
No merge. Acarina are mite AND ticks. You don't want to merge all three. `'mikka (t) 21:41, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- I was just saying that because someone proposed a merge. I am aware of the importance of each, but I hope you'll agree with me, the Acarina article is simply ridiculous. One line on a whole order! So if no merge is done it would be great if someone with sufficient knowledge could expand it. --IronChris 22:04, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I added the second one :-) And while doing so I've found there is something to write into it, but I'd rather not.
- On the other hand, it really makes sense to merge Acariformes, Parasitiformes, and Opilioacariformes into it, since the all of them must be discussed together because of some controversy as to their taxonomies. `'mikka (t) 23:13, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- I believe Mite should be merged into Acarina; according to the Encarta article on Tick, they are actually a group of mites, making "mite" synonymous with "Acarina". --Crustaceanguy 18:06, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Is there??
Is there a way to keep mites off of you? I stuck my hand in a Starling's nest, and I got a bunch of mites...

[edit] 45 000
Does the number 45 000 refer to the number of identified species, or the total number of species anticipated to exist (out of which we seems to have found 5 %)? \Mike(z) 10:59, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, please, this needs clarification! --345Kai 23:25, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Mite: Currency
Hi Everyone- I need to learn more about the Mite currency (an old form of currency from maybe 2000 years ago in the Middle East). I am not sure how to do it, but there needs to be some reference to this old currency here so that Mite (the insect) is not the only option for the users. Also, It doesn't appear that an article on Mites (currency) exists. Thanks.
Edit: I just found a reference to the mite currency in the Greek lepton article. Thanks.
[edit] More
Any experts out there? This article is close to a stub.
Why do there have to be pictures? Ugh, I have those things in me right now, thank you very much! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.36.89.42 (talk) 04:36, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
