One of my mealworm containers has lots and lots of tiny white bugs that look like dots or dandruff. Does anyone know what these are? Are they OK?

They're grain mites; infestation occurs when there's too much humidity. They are annoying due to their infinite numbers, but I don't think they're harmful to your geckos. Good luck getting rid of them. :)
