Re: Marguerite, don't give up

Marguerite.....I know where you are coming from. When it comes to these things I can't "just cope" I can't stand the crawling and the biting. I have always used very "strong" ways of keeping my life running. Several people are using the same solutions that I use and they don't post any more but I sure wish they would. Since we all may have something different on our skin the following may not help you but I know it's helping others. One person is just pouring straight Clorox on to a sponge and running that over their skin in the shower every night and then washing. Following that with the dried on salt and then for a continuing kill putting the neem oil on when they aren't going out around people....it's the smell...neem oil is strong smelling but it seems to work. Neem oil on the hair and sleeping with a shower cap on seems to kill these things. Using the dehumidifiers .....lots of them along with the diatomaceous earth seems to dry the things up. It can take up to 8 to 10 weeks just to not feel the things around the computer. When the scalp and the skin is really hurting and the crawling is bad the raid ant and roach spray kills on contact. I don't have a silver bullet for these damn things but over time I have found.....the following KILLS......

Clorox, salt, raid, neem oil, and diatomaceous earth. What we have been fighting at our house isn't something that I can take time with. It will get up our noses, in our eyes and ears. Make lymph glands swell.......we get very sick if the items I listed are not used daily. A floor cleaned with straight Clorox and then powdered down with DE can bring about a night free of the crawling and biting. Please keep in touch and don't loose hope. Rita

You Go Ms. M.!!!bird mites Date: Thursday, November 27, 2008, 4:14 PM

Ms. M.!Sounds like you are on the right track girl! You go!!! NOT washing your hair while in the tub/shower is a GOOD thing. As all you would have done is wash them right out of your hair and into your bathwater causing them to cling to you. Keep washing your hair over the sink. Never in the tub or shower. Also keep slathering the ESP on you and keep it on you at all times. Pretty soon you will start pulling stuff out of your skin while keeping the ones in your environment off of you! Keep it up and you'll be good as new in a short time!!! Hugs and love to you!Trly>> Girl, swing by HD as well or they will miss you, LOL.> > On a quick note and a 'duh' big time: so last night I decided to take a different tack and NOT dip my head underwater while doing my bathing routine, sprayed my head with the de-louse serum that came with my de-louse comb from the Cali louse SALON, then wrapped my head in plastic and left on overnight, took my borax, Mint epsom salt, Bonners and a bottle of H2O2, no rinse and left on as I am missing a shower curtain and did not want to cause another stirup for the below neighbor with a leak or so, went further and added the ESP soap and went for the 24 mask routine, felt strange not to shower this AM as break out in sudden sweat quite a bit, however, however, first of all I was amazed of the g-zillion things I rinsed from my head only, my scalp felt normal again ( I did not know anymore what normal feels like and think that thickening that was going on for so long was normal), in any event just rinsed the head and was amazed that my hair even looked> better and behaved normal again. > My body had little activity amazingly,though finally getting some lesions at least one u shape scratch like thing right under my frontal rib bone is of concern. (I lost so much weight, I can count all my ribs and my clavicle and shoulderblade stick out like a scarecrow, my clothes falling of me, the few I have left.> I consider myself totally inept with the ESP experience so far as I am just about out of the products after three weeks. will re order soon, as I finally getting the hang of it and believe it is working. > Borax, before that insightful borax post, thanks Frito, I always had Borax way up there on my list of must haves, just felt right and effective, body and environment. > > Please, anyone, chime in, I want to kick these things to kingdom come, ASAP.> > M>
