      use Davis Sulfur benz shampoo to open your pores then pour lime sulfur dip over your body.  spray thyme oil over clothes, sheets, pillows, towels etc and use kleen free preformed enzyme cleaner to wash clothes.

        Apple Cider Vinegar works great!  It is by far the best treatment I have found for my hair and body! When I'm in the shower I have ACV in a spray bottle and I soak my hair and spray my entire body. Wait for 10 minutes, rinse.  It kills all forms of the mite including the eggs.  I did that twice a day for 5 days, once a day for 10 days, then every other day for only 5 minutes.  It is very drying so I use Moo Goo MSM cream on my face and body.  I have long hair so after I rinse I turn my head upside down and put conditioner only on the hair, not the scalp--rinse it.  I've easily spent a thousand dollars and the cure was quite simple. Also, I bought a 32oz bottle of permethrin and I put 1oz in each load of laundry so I didn't reinfect myself.  Cedarwood oil is awesome sprayed on my mattress and around my bed,  it kills the little bastards and the house smells great! Also, vacuum everyday. Also, I am taking neem capsules, MSM capsules, and NAC as a little insurance. I rarely feel a bug and I am immunosuppressed and taking steroids. Hope this helps someone! Peace!

          i was prescribed spinosad and it bought the eggs to surface

          Did you mix the Cedarwood oil with anything before spraying?
          Did you spray bedding more than once?

        • Estella Cruz Estella Cruz United States says:

          Did you order permethrin, what percentage or did you buy it at local store, Cedarwood, did you buy at a local store

        • R S R S United States says:

          Thank you. I intuitively went for the ACV, stopped the itching immediately. But I still wondered. The shower spray is a great idea. I have MSM an Nac. I have pure cedar wood oil, but should get the laundry grade. Also premethrin. Just ordered that.

            I know there are many brands, but Biosilk applied a couple of times a day seemed to work. Can't remember where I read it, but totally safe, and it worked. Told a friend when she got swimmers itch from freshwater. Worked for her too.

        • Deleen Whitaker Deleen Whitaker United Kingdom says:

          Will definitely try the apple cider vinegar for my hair and body.  Permethrin also as all my clothes are infested. Thank you

            Girl, it is even worse than having them ~ TO HAVE THEM AND NOBODY BELIEVE YOU. I felt your comment in my soul. I just stare at them and say, So you think I'd act this way? Almost poor insecticide directly on me because nothing else is working? And you really believe I would behave in such a way just for the hell of it???? WTF?? I DON'T WISH THIS ON ANYBODY, BUT SOMETIMES I WISH MY HUSBAND WOULD GET IT JUST SO HE UNDERSTANDS. ~Sending Love~

            • B Morton B Morton United States says:

              My husband and I both have had issues for 3 years now.  One Dr. suggested we go to a psychiatrist because he thought it was all in our heads.  Finally, an ophthalmologist who had them himself has been treating us with metronidazole cream and eyedrops (Xdemvy) and they are much better.  This was after going to 4 dermatologist and two other specialty doctors.

              omg same here- 11 months and STILL cannot find anything that helps. I spend all of my free time searching for SOMETHING I have not tried... to make matters worse-- dr think i have a pshych problem and my HUSBAND thinks i am crazy in the head b/c they only effect ME!! (Female, 48yrs old). MAKE IT STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have NEVER dealt with anything so detrimental to every single facet of my life, from physical, mental, sleep, time consuming, shame, questioning, countless prayers, cleansing, washing, bathing, heating, freezing, etc. etc. etc. I lost track! I spend 1/2 a day just CLEANING my freaking Mite "arseonol"! what the H*LL?!?!

    • Dolly Flop Dolly Flop United Kingdom says:

      I tried everything that's suggested for these parasites, and not much works 100%. However, I found that by washing my hair and combing it through with the shampoo on, and vigorously rubbing and cleaning my hair and scalp for 5 minutes non-stop, rinsing and then repeating, and keeping the washing, rubbing, and whatever else we do when cleaning our hair going for another 5 minutes, then combing through and rinsing, and then using a good hair conditioner and again really rubbing it into the hair and scalp without stopping, and then leaving the conditioner on while I deal with the body demodex I have all over me—washing with soap and water and again making sure I clean each area without stopping for a few minutes, stopping occasionally to rub the conditioner into my hair and scalp—it does seem to drown them. At least that's what seems to happen. I use something called Dimethicone on my skin that makes them come out, but you can only use it a couple of times a week. However, if you give yourself good treatment from the start and keep it up as much as you are able to, it will help you a lot. You can only leave the benzyl benzoate on for so long. Also, the hairdryer, if you can use it on the skin and hold it there for a few moments, helps dry it up, too. Homeopathy pellets with sulfur are excellent for skin mites and such. I think you'll find it's a combination of things that help you get rid of them for good. Good luck.

      I'm so glad I've seen your comment about them in your mouth and as a result your teeth falling out I'm having the same problem but when I Google to see if it could be the months making my teeth bad I have found nothing nothing no website has said that they even have said that they don't get in your mouth and something's causing mine to go bad and I've always had good teeth all my life they are getting bad quick their nail in my front for top teeth and I have no insurance to go to the dentist and I need to figure out something to get these out of my mouth so when I seen your comment I was glad finally someone is saying it is the mites.. if anyone knows anything I could use to kill these in my mouth I would be much appreciative of any advice I can get willing to try anything at this point...¯⁠\⁠_⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠_⁠/⁠¯

    • Patricia James Baldwin Patricia James Baldwin United States says:

      I have the exact same symptoms and they are in my lungs. I would love to know what you did to get rid the mites  or under control. You're right, they can be seen. The ones on me grow to be the size if a pin head and larger. My face looks like I've aged 25 years from the irritation and deed cleaning of my skin. They are on my back as well. Thank you and happy healing.

    • John Hill John Hill United States says:

      This is exactly what im going through sometimes I feel them in my throat when they’re all coming out of my scalp at the same time I can literally feel them crawling. It’s probably because there’s tons crawling in a line but when they all come out at once, you can feel the vibration
