Rockmite/Legends

Rockmites were small, six-legged insects that lived on Tatooine and Rori and swarmed on banthas.
==History==
After the Battle of Yavin, Animal Control officer Entha Kandela tasked a spacer to eliminate rockmites around Mos Eisley to collect their egg sacks in order to manufacture artificial scent to drive the nesting mother mites further away from the city.
==Behind the scenes==
Rockmites appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, prior to its closure on December 15, 2011. Rockmites were almost identical to cave beetles, rock beetles, sand beetles and dune beetles, using the same base model with different textures.
