Can anyone tell if this dot on my banana is a mite or just a normal dot pattern?

This specific black dot looking scale is larger than the others, so I’m really worried.

That doesn’t look like a mite at all to me. Just a large spot. I’ve dealt with mites in the past and recently have been having to treat some of my snakes again for mites. They’re small, very dark colored bugs. The biggest ones I’ve seen were around 1-2 millimeters long. Very small!

Bananas/coral glows can get pretty large spots sometimes — like my banana pied boy with his snoot spot.
