Mr. Walker,
Hello and thank you for reaching out to OSU Extension for research-based, unbiased answers to your mite question.
I suggest that you submit samples to our C. Wayne Ellett Plant and Pest Diagnostic Clinic for identification. Here is the link to their page outlining the steps/procedures to follow for submitting samples: https://ppdc.osu.edu/forms/insect-and-arthropod-identification.
After receiving your results, if you still have questions, please reach out to Morning Robinson, your Ohio State University Agriculture and Natural Resources Extension educator in Cuyahoga count. Morning can be reached at <personal data hidden> or <personal data hidden>.
