Legal restrictions in some countries due to adverse health effects prevent the sales of lindane. Therefore safer methods such as lemon oil or d limonene is used to spray the premises.
Using borax and hydrogen peroxide mixture also reduce the mites. But the best is diatomaceous earth spread over the premises will help kill the mites by dehydration. Ted

I've been using DE for a year and it doesn't touch the black, red, brown, blue/black specks/rods a pinch. I sure wish it did.
