Hello everyone! I am new and very depressed tonight! :(

October 22, 2008

I have been out of work for the last week and a half. I used a few

sick days, and then decided to move my two week vacation up a little

sooner. I told my co-workers that I have hives. I believe my problem

is - these evil little bird mites!! I have one more week off, and I

was so hoping to get through this horrific nightmare before it's time

to go back to work, because I don't think I can work if I still have

them. How do people function and work with this terrible problem?????

I am so miserable tonight.

They are in my car, I feel them crawling on me. When I was at the

office a couple of weeks ago, I felt them jumping off of me. Then I

would notice people rubbing their noses or wiping their face. I get

the sharp pin pricks, and the lovely welts that they leave all over me

when they decide to attack. I consider this to be one of the worst

nightmares that I have had to go through. (I just want my life back!)

For the last 2 1/2 weeks I have been going crazy cleaning, spraying

eucalyptus oil & water, steaming, vacuuming etc... I just started

fogging this week with Best Yet, from the Cedarcide Store. I walk

around smelling like a cedar tree (kind of like a smoky smelling cedar

tree), but I must say that this stuff has given my skin some relief.

But, after awhile the little buggers still start biting me again!

I breed Miniature Schnauzers, and have used the Best Yet on them. The

dogs seem to be much happier now. I breed finches, but I have to be

extremely careful when I fog, as this could kill them. I live with a

friend, and she is not affected my these evil little things, except

for a little itch here and there. They have chosen to use me as their

host. I'm so sick of being bitten by these things and having welts

all over the place. I have spent so much money trying to get rid of

them, that I paid my mortgage and car payment very late this month.

(Never mind the pile of bills that I don't even want to look at, as I

don't have the money to pay them). I'm not sleeping well, I take a

lot of baths, and I feel so alone in this battle, that sounds like

I'll never win.

Can I pass these little evil things on to other people??? They are in

my car, and I have done so many things to get them out to no avail. I

just fogged my car the other day, but I haven't driven in it since, so

I'm not sure if that took care of the problem. My friend has been

using my car as I am off from work, and they do not bother her in the

least. The last time I used my car (around 5 days ago), the little

buggers bit me like crazy. I'm assuming because I hadn't used the car

for several days. (I guess they must have missed me).

Because I've been home and pretty much cleaning everyday, I really

think these little buggers are angry with me, so they are fighting

back by attacking me so much. ???

I really haven't read much of the post on this site yet, but I must

say it's so nice to know that there is a place that I can go to to

talk with someone about this. I'm afraid to tell anyone. My oldest

sister, and one of my son's are the only two people that I have

confided in. My wonderful sister purchased the Tri-Jet Fogger for me.

She told me to call them at the Cedarcide Store, and when I did they

were so nice, understanding and helpful. That was the first time that

I felt so relieved that someone else knew what I was going through. I

also ordered a case of the Best Yet, as the fogger only came with one

gallon, and I was told I would need three. I have a small house, but

I have a lot of stuff in it.

I need to go and finish up my bathroom closet. (I took everything out

of it last night, washed every little thing, threw out a bunch of old

stuff, and today I painted all of the shelves & the inside of the

closet. (I'm hoping I painted a bunch of the little buggers!) Now I

have to put all of the shelves back in along with all of the stuff).

I plan on coming back to read more post later.

Thanks for letting me vent!!

Very sad and disgusted!

Sue, I hope the cedar oil helps you. I sprayed gallons in my hone and it didn't get rid of the things. Helps me feel less for a little while but the things persisted. The only thing that has killed them in my house was the Clorox, salt and raid. I hope you can hang in there and keep trying...it's really all we can do. Try the raid in your car.....don't use the Raid bombs, they have different chemicals in them......use the raid ant and roach spray. Spray the car until it is saturated.....very wet......under the seat and the carpet must be soaked...you may have to use 4 cans each time you spray. This spray has removed the things from our car and from our skin and home. I wish you luck and I pray that you, along with everyone on this site gets their lives back soon. Hang in there......Rita

Rita,

Do you add the Clorox to water and Epsom salts in a spray bottle? And

to what ratio? Do you also spray that same mixture on your body? Would

you fill a tub with the mixture and soak in it? The Clorox and Dawn

baths have got

my skin like a leather-paper thing that just breaks if I accidentally

stretch it. It's really painful.

Hi Sue,

We can all relate to how frustrating this must be for you right now. It

can seem like an unending battle against an unseen predator that is

relentless. Regarding the work environment, I keep a lint roller handy

and also a small spray bottle that I can take to the bathroom to spray

if I need to. Before going in to work, I use my DustBuster vac in the

car one last time.

There isn't any one thing that does it all, it just seems like a lot of

little things which help out. I am surprised that you did not mention if

the finches you have are bothered by the mites. It was recently posted

on the forum how a bird breeder is having luck with cigar tobacco around

the bird cage and it keeps the mites away from them.

Good luck with the Cedarcide, and let us know how it works. It seems

like some are having luck and others not so much?

Welcome Sue!

I think the most important aspect of this battle is being able to get

a good nights sleep, so that you are rested enough to be able to

continue the cleaning protocol.

Some things that were successful for us came from Ray's protocol in

the files section.

Bathing Protocol:

This involved spraying Listerine Original all over us...(It burned

like fire where we had bites...) and letting it sit for a few minutes

and then bathe/shower with Tea tree oil soap or Head &

shoulders " Ocean Lift " shampoo. After we got out of the shower we

would slather ourselves down with Gold Bond Medicated lotion... The

one in the green bottle. The mites don't like the menthol. (Anything

mentholated will work.) (Alot of folks have had great results using

Sulphur lotions, Epsom salts... and etc.)

We washed our bedding every single day with Dreft laudry deterg.,

Borax, Calgon Water softner, LOTS OF Bleach where applicable.

BEFORE putting anything in your dryer to be dried... be sure to clean

your lint trap with bleach water every single time. Take your vacuum

and vacuum any and all of the lint from and around the trap... etc.

Your dryer doesn't get hot enough to kill the mites. If you don't

clean your dryer out every time, you will only infest the next load

that you put in there. Wasted washing effort is a no no! This

battle is costly enough without wasting any water.

After your bedding is dry... DO NOT make your bed up immediately.

ONLY make your bed up right before you plan to go to bed. Don't make

the bed up in the morning and let it sit all day with your newly

laundered sheets... the bedding will only become re infested and all

of the effort will be for naught. DON'T let the laundry stay in the

dryer all day either! Instead... take a garbage bag and put all of

your dry things inside... then tie a very tight knot so the bag is

airtight. (Same thing applies to clothing)

DO NOT make your bed up until AFTER you have completed your bathing

protocol. You will re infest the bedding if you don't.

After you make your bed... sprinkle Gold Bond Medicated Powder

between the sheets.

DO NOT reuse the garbage bag... Throw it away. You will only infest

the next load of laundry should you use it again.

Wrap your pillows with a garbage bag and tape it shut tight with Duct

Tape. Don't get the " crinkly " sounding bags... you'll NEVER get any

sleep!

For the environment, Several folks here have had great results with

using dehumidifiers. You can read Jeff Teeters post called " Please

Don't Water The Mites " to learn more about this.

We used Clorox and Epsom salts spray (Rita's mix!) in our environment

and have been mite free since Mid to late June.

Another thing that helped us was painting... paint every single thing

that you can... walls... ceilings... all trim work.... and be sure to

caulk every crack and crevice that you can.

Keep all wood furniture wiped down with Orange Oil.

Automobiles are tricky. I treated my truck with Windex and over a

period of a few weeks the mites were gone. Rita's Raid protocol may

work better/faster!

Diet may be another factor in how soon one can get rid of this. Do

you or are you consuming more sweets than normal? This may be why

they are atracted to you? ...

Unfortunately... I believe these things are contagious! Don't try on

clothing at dept. stores... refrain from hugging people... etc...

This was the worst part of the infestation for us. I'm a hugger...

and not being able to hug family / friends almost destroyed me.

Sue, I am so sorry that you are going through this. But you can beat

this! Just figure out a personal and environmental protocol that

works best for you and stick with it. Look at the numbers on a weekly

basis... not daily. After starting your protocols did you notice that

this week was better than last week? Less crawling? Less biting? If

so... stay with it and the numbers will continue to decrease. (Others

living within the house will need to follow this protocol as well. If

not... the environment will keep getting re infested and thus could

lead to possible internal infestation.) This isn't going to happen

overnight... winning this battle takes a bit of anger...

determination... and persistance. It will be the hardest job that you

have ever had in your life... erradicating this. But you can do it!

Best Wishes & thoughts to you!

You will get over this! Many of the people who have responded to you

including my family have beaten this nightmare.....

That was wonderful of your sister to buy you cedarside.....cedarside is

more than cedar oil alone, and there has been a poster whose husband

had this plague....they were able to get rid of this using cedarside as

well as ivermectin taken internally. Her name is Joan.

There are also plenty of other methods, many of which have been

mentioned to you already, which are getting people out of this awful

mess. Just by being a part of this group you are one giant leap closer

to getting rid of this.

October 22, 2008

I get in the shower and I soap up my wash cloth with the dawn dish washing liquid.......I have my straight Clorox in a squirt bottle ....an empty dish soap bottle works well......I take the straight Clorox and I squirt a little Clorox into the wash cloth and I start to wash. I wash my hair and my entire body with this. I keep adding soap and Clorox as needed. Then I rinse and I slowly pour the one pint of water to 2 cups Epsom salt over me. A small bottle of Listerine holds one pint of water and it makes a great mixing bottle. Then I pour the salt water into an empty dish soap bottle so that I can slowly pour the salt water over me. Rub it in well from head to toe. Then I slowly pour the extra virgin olive oil over me. I get out of the shower and blow dry my skin until it is as dry as I can get it. I put betadine or olive oil down my ears and up my nose followed by Vaseline. Then I put baby oil over the roots of my eyes lashes and follow that with Vaseline. Since we don't feel the things in the house any more, we spray ourselves with the raid right before we get in the shower. We do this because what ever we had is so very tiny that it can get set up in the skin before we know it so we don't want to give the things a chance to get back down in our skin. We are going to keep this up for at least 3 months....that's what the nurse told me....she said once the things are gone keep up what ever killed them for the next 3 months......that way we won't have failure. I had zero luck with baths.....I got my sickest trying to take baths. The dry crinkled skin that I had was from the mites and the damage they were doing to my skin. The Clorox and salt doesn't make any difference on my skin. I have soft supple skin again. Hope this helps. Rita

Hi willow are you in michigan I will help you

A bug stuck in goo will not get you

Dawn 1 cup & 4-5 cups of water was my favorite goo & cheap.Then after a few

weeks epsom is enough tj dry them into a crust . A bug stuck in a crust is done.

One man used manuka honey a T shirts to draw them out, I only read that.

Fertilizer on the lawn is effective in killing bugs.

Some areas are full of the bug.

Maybe a move would lighten the load.

It is a bug it will die, don & #39;t kill yourself doing it.

Sulfur 10 percent & hand creme is very soothing , I use is 2 time a day if

necessary . zooks used it along with permiterin ( now that is one nasty chemical

....perm ...) Zooks is cured and I used to read her letters and cry. Now she is

fine. YOU WILL BE TOO

write or call anytime

,

Bill

ps

Do you have a paypal account ?
