My Desperate Cry for Help with a Mysterious Emerging Epidemic -

[Guest guest]

A letter I didn't have the heart to send to my mom:Hi, Mom I am at my wits end with this: up all night every night just picking things off ofme that bite and raise red welts, and itch to drive one insane.

This Cedarcide product does seem to really work.

http://www.cedarcidestore.com/cedarproducts.html

I maxxed-out my last credit availability to purchase two gallons of it because other

people on the net had had success with it. Two even were free of the entities, except

they had to keep up minimal treatment practices or the irritants returned.

It arrived yesterday. I sprayed the whole place, floor to ceiling, with it, all my bedding,

me and everything else. I was able to actually get enough relief to go to sleep finally

at about 1:30am, which I haven't even been able to do for several weeks now. I have

dark circles around my eyes, and wrinkled skin hanging from my cheeks and under my

eyes on my face. My hair is so wrecked from the Clorox and Dawn detergent baths

that I can't even get a brush through it. I just wrap it and pin it to my head with a barrette.

I have sprayed the house, floor to ceiling, and yard (trees, brush, soil, driveway, walks

and porches) with 5 different kinds of insecticides and products designed to address

and remove infestations such as what I am experiencing. But still, when I step outside

my ankles and feet are immediately set-upon by myriads of little black specs which

then slide into my skin, bite, and cause swelling and itching. I have treated every single

chicken several times with Frontline, Revolution, Seargents Flea & Tick, Enzyme sprays

and doused their coops, yards, and nests with various, very expensive, products sold

to eliminate pests. Nothing has worked. With the Cedarcide all over everything I was able to sleep for two hours until more of

the irritants crawled to the surface of my skin and woke me up. I sprayed everything on my army cot (I had to dispose of my bed and all upholstered furniture. Next goes

every item of clothing, towels, or bedding that is cotton. They breed in cotton. Only

polyester seems to be too slick for them to nest in.) down again, along with my whole

body, and was able to sleep again until 5am this morning. As I sit here and type I am

shaking and on the edge of sanity with no clothes left to wear, and no blankets left for

warmth to sleep at night because even washing four times with detergent, bleach, Borax,

and insecticide does not remove the critters (whatever they are), their eggs, nits, and

larvae from my blankets and clothing.Every time I get all the things off of my body and am comfortable, when I put clotheson I am re-infested within the next few minutes and the itching and swelling swarms all

over me again. All of my blankets and clothing are piled over 3 feet high in the back

bedroom and I have sprayed Raid all over each item, the whole pile, and the floor and

room surrounding the pile. I am freezing cold with the choice of remaining so, or putting

on a garment filled with attacking entities of some kind.

I have taken and done everything the doctors and dermatologists have suggested, prescribed,

or recommended, but nothing has alterred or diminished the agony and torment of whatever

this is. I have had biopsies and specimens from three different doctors and sent some of my

own to the department of agriculture, but nothing has been found. However, I have actually

seen little black specs of something (that may be mites) on my arm or ankle biting me, and it

has raised into a red welt with all the itching, etc.

I am considering calling animal control to come get everything, walking out of here and taking

nothing with me. Or just leaving everything to starve which may be kinder than having strangers

confine and kill them. I am in debt to the degree to which I am able to charge to credit, I have

no money even for food (the animals haven't been fed in two days) and I have no ideas of where

to go from here or how to find a remedy or even some longed for solace.

I think, from the success I had last night with the Cedarcide products, that if I could afford enough

of their laundry, premise, animal, and body treatments I could maybe bring this misery down to

a tolerable level. But their products are very expensive. In my last-ditch effort to find some reason,

logic, or semblance of balance to my existence/life, I am sending out this letter, not only to you,

but to every address in my email, hoping beyond hope that there will be those who may have ideas,

or who may have the charity to order and send Cedarcide products to me at the address below, or

just simply that they may be alerted to this new and swiftly emerging epidemic, the suffering it

bestows on its victims, and the utter sense of hopelessness accompanying it. Hopefully this information

might save someone else the torment and agony so many others are now in the midst of.

I am also sending this to every news-media address I have, hoping to bring the circumstances of

this into the light of public attention so a cure/remedy will begin to be sought. I am asking that

everyone who receives this please do the same.....forward this to everyone in your email and every

news source or medical source for which you have an address. Help get the word out. Help address

the seriousness and devastation that this infestation brings to peoples' lives.

I am lost. I am alone, confused, beset with agony, and I don't know where to turn. Willow

PS During the typing of this letter, I have had to get up four times, go into the bathroom, stand

in the tub and spray myself down with the Cedarcide as literally thousands of things (that I know

not what they are.....but suspect they are eggs and larvae of this infestation) expelled themselves,

emerged from my pores, dropped off my body, and I washed them down the drain.

is my purpose and prayer that this information will spare you from the

unfathomable torture and suffering that I have endured for most of the

last year. I have had no help

from any of the many medical professionals that I sought out for

diagnosis and treatment. Five dermatologists, one naturopathic

physician, and 2 MD's have misdiagnosed or told me I was delusional

(even though my 2 closest friends had identical symptoms. None of the

doctors were willing to do any research to find out anything that would

help us. I hope from all my efforts that you will not have to lose the

time from your life or the thousands of dollars wasted on countless

attempts to rid yourself of this plague. If anyone can be saved from

this nightmare, then I have created something good out of one of the

worst experiences of my life. In this there is healing for me as well

as others. What I have learned: Only those treatments that can strengthen the immune system of your skin and body along with interfering in the reproductive cycle of this parasite will work.

You must use this life form's own patterns of reproduction and survival

to eradicate it. Anything that damages or hurts your skin's own immune

system or your bodies' ability to defend itself , repair or heal doesn't work in a permanent way. (For how to strengthen your immune system see Don't Pollute Your Own Stream in Resources)

I

sent samples of specimens to the Hawaii State Health Department that I

caught on clear packing tape (held above the floor over a few hours)

and their laboratories called me to tell me that what I had sent them

was positively identified as Collembola. They then informed me that

although I told them I collected the samples from my new laminate

flooring, my skin and my sheets they insisted they do not bite or live

in a house and are not parasitic. So much for help from the Health Dept. The

adults are hairy and have legs and a whip on their underside that

allows them to jump farther than fleas. They seem to inhabit the floor.

They are attracted to computers and TV screens and repelled by strong

smells. The adults somehow attracted only to certain people. After

years of studying I now believe that a different parasite in the

scabies family bit us and infected us with a systemic bacteria

(something like staff). This bacteria somehow causes a fungus on the

skin that attracts the Collembola whose natural role in nature is to

eat decaying leaves and fungus. This is why multiple symptoms occur. An

insect bites and infects you (like a tick infects). The bacterial

infection causes pheromones that attract the Collembola. The Collembola

are attracted to the skin and eat fungus. So this is why there is the

feeling of something crawling on you that you can't see but that only

tickles. Even after the insect or parasite is long gone the other

symptoms of crawling (Collembola)and burning itching remain (fungus on

the skin). In my case I am not sure if I ever identified the initial

parasite that was biting me. We had scrapings and biopsies that showed

nothing. I did see what looked like the larvae stage. These had barbs

all over them that must have been for attaching to fine hairs,clothing

and towels. They are so small they appear to be lint even with a 10 x

magnifying glass. If I had not studied closely and compared a few to

each other under a microscope (40x) I would have dismissed them as

lint. I saw that they all had the same shape and barbs coming off of

them in the exact same place. I believe the larvae stages are easily

killed by smothering and suffocation on the skin. I used the Arbonne

spf 30 sunscreen to do this. The eggs are only killed only when subjected to over 130 degree heat for a long span of time. In other words you have to cook them to kill them.

I now believe that the cedar product does kill the eggs which is easier

than using high tempeture steam since the equipment required is very

expensive for steaming. By studying the patterns of the symptoms I have discovered certain traits that are predictable.

1. It becomes active with the combination of heat and moisture. It

does not go into the hair on the scalp or pubic hair. It apparently

likes only fine body hair. (Shaving the body has a big impact on

recovery). 2. It became active while I was eating or handling food. It is apparently feeding and reacting to blood sugar levels. 3. It uses natural fibers as part of its cycle. (IE Clothing, towels, linens, beds etc.)

It also can live and possibly breed in paper and is attracted to it. 4.

It comes out of the body, spreads in the environment and then from the

environment re-infects the body. This is what makes it nearly

impossible to eradicate. 5. It likes clean blood and a chemically unpolluted non- chemically toxic environment. IE

healthy people (more females than males) or babies and young children).

Many people could be in our environment for 3-4 hours with no bites or

symptoms. Those unaffected all were very toxic from cigarettes and

unhealthy lifestyles. A local pest control company told us that in the

2 other cases of this they had seen only the infants in a house full of residents were being bit. 6.

Besides biting in the bed during the night other symptoms occured

probably caused by Collembola during the first rising light of dawn;

crawling rather than biting. 7.

There appears to be different types of bites on the skin. The ones

where we felt the initial bite/prick just looked like mosquito bites

and went away overnight with modest treatment. The ones where we did

not feel any bite looked like a white head festered and did not heal.

These might be the ones coming from the infection inside as apposed to

coming from the outer environment. These appeared and became active

with heat and moisture and had an intense almost burning intense

itching. No amount of even the strongest treatment (prescription

Elimite, 5% Pyrethrum creams, enzymes, internet remedies, straight

bleach, tee tree and other essential oils, boric acid/hydrogen peroxide

etc.) seemed to affect these or stop the intense itching. (Until we

tried the steam bath and Arbonne products see Protocol). These "pimple"

like bumps would recess into the skin when we managed to dry them up

and then re-activate and flare up with heat and moisture, sometimes

weeks or months later. They would dry up but a bump would remain under

the skin as if they had somehow encysted into the skin.

8. The Collembola, which can jump, and are supposedly the fastest

moving of all life forms hence they seem to disappear into thin air

because our vision is too slow to follow them. This stage and the

larvae stage of the insect that bites I think crawls and are quite east

to eliminate with enzymes, suffocating soaps, creams, heat, and

physical pinching). The insect parasite eggs are almost indestructible.

They have a type of encasement as tough as the impenetrability of a

chicken egg, you can literally spray it with everything poisonous and

the inside is untouched. Similar to chicken eggs; cooking the eggs

kills the embryo inside and also was the only

thing we have found that kills this parasite's eggs until we found the

cedar product. No poisons; pyrethrum,boric acid, or enzymes, or powders

affect the egg. The washer and dryer do not affect the eggs either. We

tried towels in the dryer at maximum heat for an hour and the eggs

still hatched! UPDATE! CEDARCIDE BEST YET WORKDS! If you order

please tell them I sent you. If you are in Hawaii please call me to

save on shipping (808-244-0231). We have it in stock and are now

distributors for this product! The CedarCide is a product that is

nontoxic and you can fumigate your house with it and it works! It is a

special formula of red cedar oil, is considered only food grade

ingredients and does seem to kill the parasite, the collembola and

eggs! The product was developed for the army! The army told them that

soldiers were being attacked and made sick by a microscopic mite that

they could not seem to kill no matter what they tried. (I had suspected

some genetically modified bio warfare brought back by soldiers from

middle east) The army admitted not even melethion would affect them.

This is the product CedarCide developed for the army and it tested at

99% fatal to the mites. The closest other killing agent was a very

toxic substance that only killed something like 19%. That product is

the one found in the mite laundry soap being sold on Q-based solutions

and is used in hospital detergents (dimethylbenzyl ammonium chloride).

The cedar product is used with a special fogger that puts it into a

vapor that is lighter than air (the fogger is expensive but you will

need to do repeated treatments so get it.) After fogging at night we

closed up the house and stayed elsewhere just to let it have time to

get into everything. We still found the vapor was a visible fog in the

air the following morning. The company pointed out that they discovered

that to kill something this small that is surface and also AIRBORNE

(this was new news) they had to reduce the particle size of the oil

(800x smaller than a drop of water) to reach total saturation. I would

have to say that this has been the most powerful help with this problem

because if you can't get it out of your environment you will never get

rid of it.p class="MsoNormal"> 9. The egg can apparently survive

a year as I have observed being bit opening box's of papers that had

been treated by a pest control company with powder un-opened since 1

year ago. Therefore merely sealing the eggs in plastic or surrounding

them with a chemical pesticide does nothing

to prevent hatching. I do not know if the eggs can survive longer than

1 year. My roommate pointed out thru her research that Collembola are

more adaptive than cockroaches and some varieties can survive being

frozen in the artic or encased in lava in the tropics. We did try

putting things in the freezer with no success. Spraying your

environment with 91% rubbing alcohol also works until you get the cedar

product. Spray anywhere you sit! They sell it cheapest at Costco and

Walmart second cheapest. Get a sprayer at Walmart for $1.25 it fits the

alcohol bottle. Note* prolonged use of spraying this will hurt you and

does not work any where as well as the cedar but will help cope. Please

call me for information on the cedar as I am handling distribution of

it in Hawaii. 10. The reason this mite is so hard to eliminate is that it appears to reside in the deepest

layer of skin. It is apparently so far from the surface of the body

that strong poisons applied topically do not penetrate to kill it. Treatments As

far as externally on the skin, speeding up their reproductive cycle as

with steam baths and killing them on surface of the skin has been the

best method for dealing with this parasite. The parasite likes

everything our healthy human body likes. Only what is uncomfortable and

harmful to us is uncomfortable and harmful to it with few exceptions

(which I luckily discovered). Note I found a 500 page book on

collembola where one sufferer recommends diet as a way to overcome the

internal infection and a few anti-itch solutions. The best one was

Bengay. It didn't make the bites go away but does seem to temperarily

stop itching. You can go to his website at richard@... It

is my theory that the steam sauna works because either the body is too

hot to be comfortable to them so they come out of the deeper layers of

the skin to escape and can then be killed or it triggers the hatching

in skin which brings the worm-phase to the skin where it can be easily

killed. Suffocation is the other method

that has worked. Interrupting the parasites cycle by suppressing the

normal sequence of their life cycle. IE not allowing them to hatch when

their eggs are ready to do so. Or it may be that we are suffocating the

worm stage as they hatch. I have found only one product that does not

harm the protective layer of the skin and still suffocates them. It is

a product formulated in Switzerland and made in the US . The 2 products

that saved us from intense suffering were the Arbonne International

brand BodyWash (soap) and SPF 30 Sunscreen. The BodyWash stops the

itching on contact by suffocation and does not at all dry or damage the

skin. Wearing the sunscreen appears to prevent both biting from the

environment and hatching from inside. The other SPF sunscreens by this

same company and other companies do not work! We tried to determine

which ingredient was the reason with no success. It appeared that

Oxycrelene, a water proofing ingredient was higher in this product than

the others made by Arbonne so we found other sunscreens that had almost

double this ingredient but they did not work at all. These products

ability to do what extremely toxic treatments can't. This may be

because Arbonne uses what is called Nanosphere technology in their

formulations. This is a medical delivery technology that is quite

expensive to produce so it is not found in other personal care

products. It is a delivery system that uses small particles to carry

ingredients to the deeper layers of the skin. Internal treatment ( See Resources)

UPDATE! I now recommend cat's claw tincture and Pau de Arco tincture 2x

daily. The cat's claw also works well topically under the sunscreens

but must be applied 2-3 times in a row (allowing a little drying time

in between. Ivermectin every 7-10 days for about a month also worked

and I and 3 others have had no side affects what so ever. We found it

at Walmart being sold as a horse parasite medicine for about $1 per 100

lbs of weight. One tube treats 1200 lbs for $12. affect: Paranix Green Black Walnut tincture (Self Health Resource Center)

Cat's Claw tincture Mite protocol- Environment You must get it out of your environment at the same time as your body!!!!

1. Call me if you are in Hawaii to try the cedar product. (see Resources). Another option is the Ladybug Steamer This is

a sterilization steamer that gets up to 298 degrees in the tank and the

dry steam comes out at 198 degrees. Since we have all smooth floors

this was the only way we could stop the infestation. Within 2 days

there was a huge improvement. I had been suffering as if I were being

eaten alive with bites all over my ankles and calves for over a year.

This stopped the infestation right away. Our environment was sterilized using no poisons or chemicals. We steamed our cars, shoes what ever was suspect. This is the #1 thing

that helped us. (It is not a good as the cedar though because the cedar

has a repellant that does repel for many days). If we had not purchased

this incredible machine we would still be suffering today. I found it

researching dust mites. This was successful in eliminating them so I

knew it would work since steaming was the only thing that had worked on

our physical bodies. Note* only get a steamer where the steam coming out of it gets up to 180 degrees or it will not kill them and may in fact cause them to increase since they like warm moist environments.

After

spraying with Kleen Free enzyme from Genesis, Q-Based Detergent and

environmental products, and having Flea Busters treat with a supposedly

non-toxic powder, we were still completely under attack. I believe this

is because none of them could kill the eggs. The enzyme we used on our

floors made the skin on our feet peel. The Q-Based Solutions products

affected us and we all got respiratory damage from it. We had thick

mucous from our noses and were coughing for a week in reaction to

spraying or mopping with this product. Not fun when you are already

suffering. 2. Get rid of your mattress and box spring. I

know this is drastic but after having Flea Busters treat mine, covering

it in plastic, steam cleaning it I was still getting bit. I think these

are so small they can get thru very tiny tears in the plastic. We all

got air mattresses from Costco and never felt the biting from the

mattress again. While you have active mites on your skin you have to

have clean sheets and blankets every night. If you spend the energy

sanitizing your sheets only to have your mattress immediately re-infest

them you will not progress. We replaced our cotton blankets with

polyester and have only had to wash them once a week since the mites do

not seem to like them. 3. Remove all clothing and cloth items that are infected and store in bags until you clean them. Once

clean store in clean plastic bags to keep them from being re-infested

from the environment. Only wear the clothes that have been treated.

Only use the items once and then place them in bags until you launder or treat them. If you put any clothing on and begin to feel anything take it off immediately and put it into the laundry. If you ignore this you will be re-infesting yourself. The

mite reproduces or attaches eggs to cotton and cotton blends. It does

not seem to do this with smooth silk (as opposed to raw silk), or any

polyesters or nylon so we could wear these more than once. I believe

that the smoothness of the fabric prevents the attachment of eggs. This

discovery was a tough one for us in the tropics since these man-made

materials make you sweat in the heat; the very thing that causes the

mites to multiply and spread on the body and in the environment. On top

of that because of living in the tropics we only owned cotton clothing.

We went out to buy temporary clothing made of nylon and polyester

fabrics in the thrift stores. It "mite" be a favor to others to discard

this clothing rather that putting back in the thrift store bin even

after treating, there is no guarantee that treatment kills all the

eggs. Please always be careful and thoughtful not to do anything that

could possible spread this to another person. 4. Treat all your clothing, bed

linens, towels, pillows etc, with bleach or (UPDATE I have not tried it

but cedarcide makes a water based treatment to use in the yard and your

laundry and it is not the toxic chemical found in Q-based If you live

in Hawaii and want to try it call me 808-244-0231) Q-Based Solutions

Laundry disinfectant if they can only be cold water washed. Update we

found a replacement for the Q-based laundry detergent that cost $11

instead of $100 a gallon. Resturant supply carried it and it is called

Clear Pine by Carroll for Hospital and Institutional and Industrial

use. It is the same ingrediants. (see Resources). Remove all

cloth/upholstery items in your home or treat them by steaming them (See

Ladybug Steamer in Resources) it is more prudent to just not have them

in your environment until there is no activity on your body for weeks.

We are positive these parasites are transmitted by bodily contact,

clothing or cloth items and paper. You must soak

everything cloth for at least 1-2 hours for the bleach or Q-based

detergent or Clear Pine product to really sanitize cloth. Just adding

them thru a normal wash did not work. Be sure to double rinse

all this out of your clothes. We developed boils on our skin from the

Q-Based detergent being left in our clothes. We thought if we let it in

the clothes it would work better. Even one rinse still caused the boils. Boils on top of the bites was a nightmare. Putting them in the dryer did not work for us at all! Either our dryer is not hot enough or it does not kill the eggs, and may even hatch them. Spray your lint screen with enzyme and be sure to remove the lint each time you use the dryer.

Put the lint in a zip lock baggie and leave it near the dryer so you

remember to do this. You can iron your clothes and sheets but would

need to be careful that the heat goes through enough to kill anything.

The Ladybug comes with a steam iron you can purchase that can sterilize

your clothes. The steam coming out is pressurized and thoroughly

penetrates the cloth. In addition, you will never use a regular iron

again, we got very professional results with less effort that an

electric iron. (Update do try fogging your house with the Cedar product it penetrates all cloth and carpets!) If

you have carpets steam clean them and or saturate them with food grade

diatomaceous earth (DTE). Steam clean your car seat and rugs and

saturate them with food grade diatomaceous earth. (Lesser grades of DTE

can cut your lungs like asbestos) Do not forget your seat belt. Steam

it and saturate it with DTE.( All three of us were re-infected after

being over this for weeks with our seat belts.) Treat your hat rims,

back packs, purse straps and shoes with steam and then DTE also. It

does work and it acts like glass and cuts the adults and so helps

to stop the cycle. Look around and think of anything else that could

cause reinfection. (The backpack straps and hat bands got by our radar

until we hade bites in those areas enough times to make the connection.

Have you're friends help look for these items, you will skip over them

when you have been surviving on little of no sleep while being

literally eaten alive. 5. Papers It took us a long time just to believe that these monsters are very attracted to papers, filing boxes etc. You

can put your papers in your oven at low temperature (hot enough that

you can't touch them to kill the mites in them. Be sure and watch the

papers, take them out if the corners start to brown; the eggs are

"done" when the paper corners are starting to turn brown! Burning

incense and candles near your computer or television will keep the

mites from biting you. UPDATE this is why I am sure the cedarcide works because after using it I can finally type this with nothing jumping on me! Physical Body protocol:

1. Buy Arbonne BodyWash. (See Resources)

After

trying everything you can imagine (see list of what did not work), I

realized that this mild soap kills them! Your skin is part of your

immune system, it is created to keep out invaders, keep your internal

organs safe, breathe and eliminate toxins. It

is the largest organ of elimination you have. Just as things you

consume hurt your internal immune system things you do to your skin

hurt its immune system. Your skin creates a layer to

protect itself from invading microbes. Most soap strip this completely

off. You know you have done this when your skin feels tight and squeaky

clean. When you use these stripping types of soaps what you don't

realize is that it then takes @ 24 hrs for your body to re-create this

protection. In the mean time, your skin is unprotected with what should

be the first line of defense and is exposed to environmental damage,

bacterial microbes and mites. The soaps and poisons that are being sold

to kill these mites work in the moment but make you more susceptible to having them tomorrow! Also

do read up on how this PH correction works for healthy skin. You will

want to keep you're skin in "beter than ever" condition even after the

mite invasion is only a bad memory. It was explained to me while trying to use the products from Q-Based solutions for mites that the products all worked by suffocating

the mites. I realized that a product did not have to strip and ruin the

health of your skin to do that. I looked like I had aged 30 years from

the drying affect of their products. Because of

this damage I began using the Arbonne BodyWash that someone suggested

directly after Q-Based products to try to correct the ph of my skin and

heal the damage. One day I decided to see what would happen if I just

used the Arbonne. To my amazement it worked better on the mites

and did not hurt my skin. It in fact healed my skin! The wash does not

suds unless you use the puff that comes with it. Just squirt one pump

on the puff and work it into a lather with your hand and then apply it

by scrubbing your entire body. If you are not

sensitive enough to feel what is active scrub for 10 minutes, rinse off

and re-apply and then let dry on. Leave it on for as long as it takes

to stop any signs of activity. You can shave using it as a shave cream

while waiting. If areas continue to show activity after washed off just

apply more wash and leave it on longer. It stops all activity on the

skin. Do not leave it on for longer than a short while after and if it

dries on your skin or it will make you itch. You can buy online by

clicking. www.com

To get it cheaper, I signed a year membership ($29) to get my products

at 35% off. * You can also sign up and get the 35% off thru my link.

This is MLM but I am not doing it as a business

and do not get paid anything at this time on what you buy. You just

can't buy at all without coming thru a sponsor. (See Resources for more

information if you cannot buy online) One body wash lasts for 3 months

even used 6x a day if you use the applicator it comes with. I was using

other brushes and realized that they were not fine

enough to remove the eggs and larvae. The applicator scrubby that comes

free with the wash is perfect and it is not a natural fiber. You can

not use any natural fiber brushes or cloths because the mites will

breed in these. * We replaced our large

bath towels with small white easily bleached terry cloth rags we found

at Costco in the auto washing department. This allowed us to use a new

one each time we bathed and will lessen the number of loads you will

need to wash. Be sure to bag used rags after use. 2. Buy Arbonne SPF30 Sunscreen (See Resources)

UPDATE! We found another sunscreen that works evern better but is very

costly. It is called COTZ spf 58 by FALLENE. It actually works to get

rid of the lesions and dries them up even though it appears to be

moist. It suffocates the best because it forms a thick coating and

dries. I used cat's claw first then a thick layer on the lesion and

some would be gone overnight. Since this is so expensive I only did

spot treatments with it. It stains but they can be removed with Costcos

Degreaser. The second greatest relief was when I found the Arbonne

Sunscreen that acts like some sort of repellant. I normally swim in the

ocean every day and noticed that I did not seem to have any activity on

my body when I had my sunscreen on. It seemed to not only stop activity

but prevent the biting all together. I began wearing it all the time as

protection from my environment. I tried all the other levels of

sunscreen by this company and they did not work! Only applying the SPF

30 worked. After studying the ingredients I realized that it had more

of one ingredient that was moisture barrier than their other

sunscreens. Thinking it had to be the key ingredient that worked I

found 2 other sunscreens that had 10% of it instead of 7%. They did no

work at all. What I learned is that Arbonne uses a very expensive

technology in their skin products called Nano-Sphere technology. This

is a delivery system (only usually used in Pharmaceuticals) that allows

their ingredients to penetrate into deeper areas of the skin. They used

microscopic particles to carry other ingredients deep into the skin. It

costs a lot to manufacture products this way bit they discovered it

brought measurable results as far as healing skin. I realized that this

was why these two Arbonne products worked on the mites. The key in them

is getting deep into the layers of the skin where the mites are. You

will need to put this in a continuous film on your body and then

re-apply to the spots that are bites so they have a thick layer on

them. . Re-apply each spot to heal it as many times a day as possible.

It is easier if you apply the sunscreen just after toweling off when

the skin is still moist. It tends to go farther and is easier to get it

to spread in a continuous layer. Do the bottoms of your feet too. Thefungus

coming out thru my skin caused what looked like rust stains on my

sheets and clothing. You can't remove the stains with any amount of

bleach or stain removers but it comes out instantly with a product

called Wink for colored fabrics sold at Longs Drugs. 3. Shave your body except head and pubic hair.

The

mites do not go on to the hair on the head or into the pubic hair. We

have observed that they like areas on the body with finer hair. Keeping

the body shaved showed instant results. It is either because shaving

removed all eggs that scrubbing misses or it some how makes skin less

attractive to them. Be careful not to nick or damage the skin while

shaving because the mites seem to take advantage of the tears in the

skin and enter there. You can use the Arbonne BodyWash as a shave cream while you are bathing. Not

only does shaving help you to be cleaner it also saves money on the

products you use to treat and cover your body. (IE to saturate a short

nap carpet would take less quantity than trying to saturate a shag

carpet) 4. Buy Tincture of Benzoine Compound (See Resources)

I

had tried everything else and found this in my medicine chest one day.

I had it because it was recommended for turning blisters into calluses.

It is actually a remedy for canker sores in the mouth. It has a strong

disinfectant in it that does work on the bites. It has Balsm of Peru

which is a mite medication from South America . *

note I tried the Balsm of Peru by itself on the bites previously and it

did not work although I continued to put it into the clay I was making.

The Benzoine tincture without the Balsm does not work. You can get the

compound from Longs Drugs or Longs.com UPDATE! I think that the

Bengay works better for itching than anything else. Longs makes a

cheaper muscle rub that is the same ingrediants as Bengay but is

stronger and works better. 5. Buy New Skin Liquid Bandage (See Resources)

This

was such an important find because it helps to block the parasite

cycle. It seals the active bites so you don't re-infect your

environment during the day and while you sleep. This re-infecting the environment is why this is so difficult to get rid of. The problem goes both ways. The body infects the clean environment and the infested environment re-infects the clean body. You can get this at Longs or any drug store. Get the larger size and

the smaller size so you can refill the smaller bottle from the larger.

Leaving the lid off while you use it makes it evaporate and get thick

and unusable. Keeping a small amount in the smaller bottle will save

you money. You can use the liquid bandage over the sunscreen or

tincture on problem areas. The tincture is sticky, so you will find

that putting the liquid band aid over the tincture will keep you're

clothes from sticking to you're body. UPDATE I found that the spray on liquid bandage is far better if you can find it. 6. The AromaSpa -Personal steam bath unit (See Resources)

This

has been the most helpful for eliminating the mites that are

reproducing in or on the skin. The steam sterilizes your skin. These

units are pricy but are one of the greatest remedies for all health

conditions there is. Steam baths with essential oils was Hippocrates

(the Father of Medicine) most recommended treatment. You will use it

for the rest of your life and it will extend your life! It

plugs into any household outlet and uses distilled water. I have had

one for 10 years and it has always functioned perfectly. You

can use it daily to deal with sports injuries, sinus problems, colds,

arthritis Just to name a few. It will also strengthen the immune system

and relax you. It is a

form Tai Kwan Do (martial arts) on the mites... Since 100% of the time

the mites became active during and just after sweating we used this to

our benefit. By controlling when the hatching

took place we could then easily kill the larvae on our skin with the

wash and sunscreen. This is far superior to having them hatching and

spreading while you are at work or school away from a shower and with

no time or place to treat anything biting, crawling or itching. The

Steam bath must be 130 degrees to kill the mites. (It is interesting

that when we are ill the body naturally heats up to this when trying to

kill off bacteria and pathogens that thrive at our normal 98.6

temperature). We stayed in the steam bath 10 minutes from the time it

reached full heat. We used an essential oil in the steam that is called

Immunoboost (See Resources) but you can use what ever you like that

strengthens you. I also like cedar or lavender oil. We

took our temperatures to see how hot we were getting internally. We

were ranging around 103.6F. One of us was getting up to 104.6 F but I

think this is not safe and not necessary. Take the Arbonne Body wash

scrub puff that comes with it or any fine

nylon puff or nylon exfoliating scrub gloves (they have them at Longs

Drug Stores or Wal-Mart) in to the steam bath with you. Scrub to kill

hatched mites anywhere you start to itch until you don't feel any

activity. Put the most infected parts closest to the steam to heat

them. Careful not to burn your skin. This will not help your problem

because it will weaken your skins own defenses. Because anything

comfortable to you they like it is beneficial to get so hot that your

heart starts to pound to kill them. Stay in the heat as long as you safely can. Note * Be sure to

check with a doctor if you have any conditions that would make it

unsafe for you to do this treatment. The more toxic you are physically

the less heat tolerant you are so you may have to start out with a

lower temperature and less duration. Use

Arbonne Bodywash immediately upon coming out of steam bath to suffocate

anything left on your skin. Cover every inch of skin with a thin layer

to seal it. We did this as we stepped out of the steam bath because if

something just hatched because of the moist heat and the heat did not

kill it, you do not want it to go into your environment on the way to

the shower. We just left the soap on for a few minutes while we cleaned

the spa which saved time and also gave the soap time to suffocate the

mites.7. Help your skin's immune system Get

in the ocean or a lake and get lots of sun and fresh air on your skin.

It strengths your immune system which is what your skin is -- part of

your immune system. The ocean is revitalizing for the skin; it is what

was in the womb when you were forming. 8. Clay Treatment After

purchasing very expensive clay products from Q-Based, I finally made up

my own. I chose ingredients based on lots of research on what would

kill these mites. The ingredients and instructions are as follows:

(Most can be found at health food) Neem oil essential oils of lavender (wild)

essential oils of cedar essential oils of rosemary

essential oils of tea tree (Melaleuca brand is best) MLM but don't join cause 1 bottle lasts for years) (See Resources)

Balsum of Peru (See Resources) Camphor

Hydrogen peroxide Borax washing powder

Dissolve Borax into peroxide until it won't dissolve any further

because peroxide is saturated. Pour this into another container and

leave behind any not dissolved Borax. In

this mixture of peroxide and dissolved borax put 5 drops of each oil

and mix well together. Mix clay into this mixture a little at a time

and stir until all lumps are gone. Pour more of peroxide if needed to

make very consistent clay. You can use this on bites if they do not

respond to the other treatments or if they continue to ooze. Once they

are dried up resume the other treatments. 7. Menthol (See Resources)

I

read on one of the sites that mites hate menthol. I found this very

strong menthol cream for sports injuries called Deep Relief by Health

Core Inc. I got it from a chiropractor but you can call them and find out who carries it near you. The Arbon menthol product worked very well also. Before

we got the Ladybug Steamer and got the house environment sterilized I

would put the cream on my feet and legs to keep them from jumping on

me. It works and instantly stop itching too. It may kill the adults and

larvae, but I know it does not kill eggs. Nothing but boiling the eggs

kills them. This is so strong that it will burn your skin if used on

sensitive skin. You can mix it with another non scented cream for use

on delicate skin. Also worked very well mixing the menthol with the

Arbon sunscreen, that was the double whammy to the mites! One

of the problems with this skin disease is denial. If every member of

the household does not earnestly get committed to doing everything they

can to get rid of the problem they will be continually re-infesting the

environment. The problem will continue unless every person in the

environment makes the effort to get rid of it on their person, in their

possessions and in the environment. An attitude of just ignoring the

problem in the hope that it will go away will only because the other

members involved to suffer needlessly for much longer and is an

extremely selfish attitude. Believing that something of this nature

will go away without committed effort is like believing that a

cockroach infestation or ant infestation will go away even when it has

an unlimited food supply. In the case of these parasitic mites the

human body is just that… an unlimited source of food FOR THEM! Resources and Links
