Okay I have a theory, and this is, like [b][i]SERIOUSLY[/i][/b] outlandish, but hear me out. So, they mentioned that it started when a team went to the Dust Palace on Mars, right? Well, everyone remember that secret room? If my theory is correct, that's not just any room. That place had a SIVA cluster in there, didn't it? And if I'm not mistaken, didn't Clovis Bray develop SIVA? And if that's right, it only supports my claim even further. I think that these mites are various types of SIVA. Much more tame versions of SIVA. And I think this is evidence of how quickly SIVA spreads, and how big a threat it is.
