Do the ProPest Pheronet Pantry Pest Traps work for catching rat mites? I need to catch one for identification purposes.

Answer:

ProPest Pheronet Pantry Pest Traps are only going to attract male pantry pests. Rodent mites may feed on humans if unable to find a rodent host, but they will evenually die off as they cannot reproduce without that host.  That is why finding and eliminating the source is the first step in treatment. You can try on glueboards that have no attractant such as the Trapper Max Free Glueboards.
