What are clover mites?
Clover mites are actually true mites, not insects. They are a close relative of ticks and spiders. Clover mites are tiny, home-invading mites that are red in color with long front legs. To the naked eye, they are no more than tiny red bugs and appear no larger than a pinhead. They feed primarily on clover, grassy lawns, plants, and weeds and tend to appear by the thousands during the spring and fall months.
Why do I have them?
Clover mites crawl from the ground to invade your home through small cracks and tiny openings around windows and doors. Inside, you may find them crawling around window sills, on walls, or directly on windows. These bugs will leave behind a telling red stain when crushed. On the exterior, you may find thousands of these tiny red bugs gathering on siding, brick walls, and other outdoor surfaces and are often attracted to the sunniest side of the house or foundation.
Are clover mites dangerous?
Clover mites are nuisance pests due to their ability to invade homes and businesses in large numbers through cracks and crevices. They cannot bite, are not harmful to humans or pets, and will not cause structural damage, but clover mites may leave red stains on walls, carpets, and furniture if they are crushed.
