Um... shouldn't you have posted this in a "health" or "help" forum, since you didn't actually post any pictures of it?

Okay I moved this to the Health Issues forum.

I don't honestly know what you can do to get rid of mites since products like sevin dust and provent-a-mite are designed to kill insects. I know millipedes aren't insects, but I think they're kind of close. Maybe you could try some other websites with more insect/arthropod hobbyists that have had more experience with this kind of thing.

(edited to add)
I found this one that looks pretty good PetBugs.com

Check out the care sheets to your left. There's one for Mites using mineral oil. May work on your millipede.

If you look to your left, there's the Main Menu. Listed under Special Sections are the Caresheets. Here's the link to the Miscellaneous Caresheets. that include a section for mites.
