You sometimes cannot see the mites, BUT you can always feel them. When picking up your fruit fly culture you can easily feel them. The container does not feel like plastic, but feels little bumps or like a film is on the container. You do not necessarily have to throw it out; place the fruit fly container in this product and within a week you will notice the container not feeling funny anymore. As time goes by, you will feel less and less. Throw out old cultures as they attract the mites.
