Land hermit crabs do not typically carry diseases that can be transmitted to a human, but they can carry mites- which can transfer to other pets and crabs. To get rid of mites, simply dip your hermit crab into a bowl of room temperature water for a few seconds with their opening facing upward. The mites should float out.
