The red velvet mite or रानी कीड़ा or राम बिलैया is a small,rare, eight-legged arachnid belonging to the family Trombidiidae. These tiny creatures are known for their bright red color and velvety appearance, which is due to their dense covering of fine, short hairs.
Red velvet mites are found in plant litter and are most active during the day, especially during rains and sunny weather. They feed on insects and other small arthropods, using their chelicerae to suck out their prey's bodily fluids. Some species of red velvet mites, like the giant Indian red velvet mite, are considered useful for their potential medicinal properties and are used in traditional medicine.
