RED VELVET MITES(SADABA BOHU)

SADHABA BOHU__
Where are the "sadhaba bohus" (Red velvet mites)?Due to use of insecticides and OPC in the cultivation lands, these little red creatures of our childhood days are on way for extinction.In villages after the rainy season and during puja time they come out and breed.While going to school in the morning we used to watch them crawl over the green dew soaked grass.We were told in our infancy that 'sadhaba bohus' come from sky with rain and dew.Those who grew up in cities and are late risers might not have seen these lovely little creatures..
