Help with Mite ID

Found a few mites in my soil last few weeks of flower wasn’t to worried because I could not find any on leaves or buds just the soil. I first thought just a soil mite that im not to concerned about but now that I have harvested I see them all over my dried buds.
sorry for the bad pics tried my best wit the hand scope and my phone.

here’s a pic on a dried bud

Well after trimming a couple plants they only seem to be on the bottom few buds, so i’m sticking with soil mite.

Don’t know if I’d consume bud with mites or ticks might get Lyme disease. :joy::man_shrugging:t2:
