Here to share my experience. Till this day, don't know how I got infected with these malicious mites but my body was taken over by these invaders. My hands, neck and chest!! One thing that helped me in this madness was a YouTube channel literally called "I think I have Mites" this Australian Woman chronicles her experience with Demodex mites. To me mites are just like snakes, you have different varieties but their all the same. She recommends Diatomaceous Earth (Food Grade only) You have to make yourself "inhospitable" to these freeloaders. Remember you're tired to being a 5-star luxury resort for them things you got to morph into the most horror ridden hostel. This is all that you need and what you need to do:
1st- Buy some Sulphur Soap, shower under very warm/hot water as you "scrub" with some type of bodypuff. You got to scrap the soap into your skin to get at them. I also add 10-15 drops clover oil into my body wash bottle, shake it up every-time you use it. I bodywash first round, sulphur soap second wash.
2nd-Buy a cheap spray bottle. You are going to mix 91% alcohol and yellow mouthwash that contains Thymol like 80:20 ratio. You're going to spray your sofa/couch, bed, carpet where-ever you lounge. You can even spray yourself in the areas you feel them biting.
**3rd-Buy a 4lb bag of Diatomaceous Earth (Food Grade). You're going to dust every body part these mites have burrowed underneath your skin. Wear a mask(bandanna or cotton-balls in your nostrils) when applying because you Do Not want to breathe this stuff in your lungs.
4th-I even bought some Bittermelon & Sweet Wormwood pills. Because I saw where you could eat bittermelon to help with this (I don't know if it helped but this is what I did.)
I know the DE dusting, Sulphur Soap, clove oil & 91%alcohol mixed with Yellow mouthwash spray worked. Also, I isolated myself from my family=no hugs :(, slept on 3 different twin sheets in rotation to laundry used Borax Powder in my separated laundry on hot water, mites can't survive hot water either.
Hope this Helps! Love this Site and Everyone! Stay Blessed ;*

For ease of application and even distribution I mixed it with a natural oil, like Oregano oil, Tea Tree oil, or Rosemary oil.
Applied this mix twice a day, for 4 days, stopped eating sweet fruits, slept at least 8 hours per night, and I could tell my skin was healing real fast, and without any scars, or discoloration.
Treatment has been easy and cheap; so far it has cost me only a dollar.
However, what has really-really helped me was the right diagnosis. You need to spend at least 15 minutes on the Net looking at some pictures that dermatologists made and uploaded to the Internet.

After mixing both oils in lotion, let dry. Then when completely dry apply the DE and rub it in. During this time times when you shower, you should be scrubbing with sulfur soap and allowing it to remain unwashed off on the skin, for a min of ten min. Do not skimp on the time. Ten full min or more then completely wash off. Grisi is the brand of the 10% sulfur soap.
Also most importantly, many come here looking for advise and may assume they have a condition when they may not. I've seen people who did not know they had bed bugs complained to their derm about scabies or other single infections. Keep in mind there are a variety of mites also the have very different habits of existence. Some living in the skin, in the environment and longer than expected without food supply. See a doc if you can. If not, do your self a favor and research and get feedback from a trusted friend or loved one.

To Helpplz: I buy mine at a feed store, 50 lbs for $21.00. It's real name is Diatomite Silica. You can buy it at nurseries and garden centers, too, but for far more expensive. We drink ours. I don't have hot flashes when I drink it. I took several tablespoons twice daily, and the next day the flashes quit. I vacationed in the Carribbean without air conditioning for two weeks, and the flashes still didn't happen.
I also quit having gluteal hamstring pulls--I have no idea why they quit the day after I began taking the silica. I'd had them for 5 years previously, as long as I'd been running. However, four months ago I changed my running form from heel strike to forefoot strike, and the hamstring pulls never recurred, even without my taking silica. Strange, but my knees and ankles quit hurting when I changed form, too.
When I quit taking silica, however, my hot flashes returned.
I can't tell what else silica did for me because I am not aware of having any other health problems.

I buy DE online, it's cheapest. You can also buy it in the stores locally like health food stores and feed stores. I also buy my DE at the Tractor Trailer Supply Store. They also sell horse paste that people use for scabies but don't tell them you're buying it for yourself. They sell other things there that will help kill your mites. I buy the grey animal type of DE, it's not refined. I use it for my environment and my dog and my body. Internally I use the whitish type which is refined and for human intake and externally. The animal type you can consume too and it's a better quality but it seriously tastes like dirt. I can't drink or eat it. Gross!
