What is a "mite"?
A mite is a tiny arthropod belonging to the subclass Acari. Mites are characterized by their small size, usually less than 1 mm in length, and their eight legs. They are found in a wide range of habitats, including soil, water, plants, and animals. Mites are incredibly diverse and can be herbivores, predators, parasites, or scavengers, depending on the species. Some mites are important in agricultural systems as beneficial predators that feed on pests, while others can be pests themselves, causing damage to crops or transmitting diseases.
Example
The farmer noticed that the mites were damaging the crops, causing the leaves to wilt.
A single mite can be difficult to see with the naked eye, but its presence can be detected by its effects.
The veterinarian examined the dog for mites, which can cause irritation and hair loss.
