They could be wood/substrate mites, we had an outbreak a little while ago. Theyre not harmful to the animals and a tube of defender mites sorted the problem out in no time.

good idea! if they cant help try a couple more aswell but if ur search is a failure you should take them to the vets, maybe take the lil fella's too if they seem different in their ways, also a poo sample would help a vet too
 lol..if you take a poo though make sure its as "fresh as possible

personally i'd clean the whole viv, disinfect and and soak the bark and coconut husk for a while to ensure everythings off. as long as everythings cleaned properly and they're not on ur leo it should be fine. if there are loads cant get scoop out hoovers are great!!
