I've been hearing a lot about flat mites lately among my local Hoya community as well as the broader community as a whole. It seems like this is a wide spread issue that has been going around everyone's collections. As far as I'm aware I have not personally dealt with them however I think it is important to share resources I've seen for anyone who may be dealing with them.
In the July 2022 issue of the Stemma Hoya journal there is an article on pages 21-28 that talks identification, detection, life cycle, treatment, and prevention of flat mites. Adam aka Knot Dude on YouTube also has a really great video about flat mites. Click here to watch that. I really liked the detailed pictures he showed on identification.
