“…However, our results suggest that the fluctuation in the microclimate inside these confined spaces differently affects the species of mites coexisting inside them, which have different biological and/or reproductive responses to the variation in humidity. Notably, the complex dynamics of the predator–prey system inside sachets depend on the interaction of moisture with other variables, such as the quantity and quality of the prey food, the moisture retention capacity of the substrate, the spatial complexity of the substrate, the interference of congeners [ 12 , 13 , 34 ], the porosity of the paper and other materials that constitute the walls of the sachet, the development of fungi in the carrier substrate, and the location of the sachets in the field [ 38 , 39 ].…”
