Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hi Vsrcibe I saw your mix you made ..nice ! I use 365 Everyday Value brand body lotion from whole foods in Michigan in my sulfur mix it has no pertoleum . After months & months of baby oil all over me, my car & tools, I became affected from it. I stopped using petroleum products and the affect it had on me stopped. I feel great now, I have been soaking in borax 1 cup per 5 - 8 gallons of water. I also add epsom & regular dawn dish soap to drown the swimmers . I do this 1 -2 times daily for 30 mins, and I have no crawlers or bites. I do feel a deep small wiggling in my back in about 5 spots , once in a while. I wonder what that it is.? I wonder how to get rid of it? . I will soak for 60 days like the last time they got on my feet real bad when I wasn & #39;t wearing cowboy boots for protection . I heat the boots in a hot box to 190° with an indestructable vidal sasson hair dryer on low setting in a 20 gallon rubbermaid tub with the lid on a jar a little bit to regulate the temp. Meat therm reads 190°, I do it for for 3 hrs : cost 1 KWH ,(kilo watt per hour )=.05 cents X 3 hrs .= .15 cents to heat treat the boots or any thing that can take heat.....gotta love it ! ..My boots are sterile. I never get bit on my foot or ankles . ps papers & receipts can not take the heat the paper turned black on half my receipts I had in that batch .. I sure would like to know your results from your mix & the proportions . Would you post them ? God bless you , Bill The Lord is my shepard I shall not want He makes me lie down in green pastures He leads me beside still waters Thou my enemys encompass me round about He prepares a banquet in the presence of my enemys .... Job in the bible had sores all over his body . God delivered Him , He will deliver us also. God is good ! vbscribe wrote: > KJ, > We'd go broke buying nothing but prepared products, especially the > natural ones. > We have found ways to integrate essential oils without spending big > bucks.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Hi Doe, Your hot box idea for shoes is ingeneius! And thanks for the sulfur lotion tip. Do you find the lotion/sulfur mix as effective as the Baby Oil mix? I definitely have to get away from the petroleum. Apparently petroleum traps and forces the things to succumb to the sulfur, but I've noticed my eyes actually ache when I get vaseline too close to my eyes. It's good to hear you're almost over this. How do you keep the buggers from crawling up your neck when you bathe? I always feel worse after bathing as opposed to showering. I've tried washing with Dawn but it dries my skin out something fierce. Maybe the wiggling on your back is the location where you put the most pressure while laying on the tub, and somehow they've avoided drowning in that particular spot (air pocket?). Disconcerting that you feel it deep down, though. I'm always concerned about their level of invasiveness. No doubt you've already tried sulfur on your back. You may want to try repeated sprays of alcohol. We made a spray per the advice of someone on this board (can't remember name). The mix is equal parts ethyl alcohol and witch hazel, with a few drops tea tree oil. This is a great spot treatment. The author also uses it as an environmental spray. The results from our conditioner have vastly improved since adding the melted menthol crystals. I find much less crawling on scalp and face when I have this concoction smothering my scalp. I have also tried a mix of coconut oil/anise/clove for the scalp and didn't work near as well the conditioner mix. I'm afraid our technique is not very scientific and still in the experimental stage. We just pour the conditioner into a pot (husband says heating is not necessary for conditioner, only for sulfur creme), and start adding ingredients. For the Costco brand conditioner I would add at least 1 ounce of melted menthol crystals. You want whatever conditioner you're starting out with to smell strongly of menthol or peppermint, of which menthol is a derivative. Go heavy on the clove too. We add so much sulfur it turns the conditioner from blue to green. This mix will sting your hands so make sure not to get in eyes. I leave this conditioner on all day and night and it's helped immensely. I believe my head and face would be completely infested otherwise. I'm currently shampooing with Walmart's Coal Tar shampoo.

Apparently petroleum traps and forces the things to succumb to the sulfur, but I & #39;ve noticed my eyes actually ache when I get vaseline too close to my eyes. & #39; & #39; I used 1 tspn coconut , 1 tspn sulfur & 9tspns 365 brand hand creme, it works. .. I thought the vaseline might help lock in the sulfur to the skin. I am not sure , any sulfur applied every day top of head to toe definatly affects the skin in a huge way. Sometimes it would make my skin feel sunburned. I would then stop sulfur use and use MSM LOTION ( from www.nowfoods .com ) and tons of oil, any kind . But not petrpleum anymore . I have reached my threshold of petrolem for life. Big pain in my chest whenever I use it . I never have any pains if I don & #39;t use it You asked about the Dawn inthe tub. It does dry the skin a lot. But it sure works. I always shower a long time before the bath and spray Dawn 1 cup to 5 water all over the tub/shower as I am showereing to kill the feet grabbers. After the shower I take a bath in plenty of suds. No suds= neck line biting from the swimmers reattaching. Msm lotion can be made easily with tablets or capsules. I use 5 , 500 mg tablets per 3 oz of lotion or water . I put the water version in my hair for the no gluck look . MsM works very well and it can be put in the eyes or ears.also. Msm is the only thing that completly removed the bug from my hairline, they would not go away from it no matter what. I had sulfured it till I was blue in the face , or should I say red ...ouch . The msms applies easyly and has no pain whatsoever. it takes a few days to notice the difference. Fritos report of the 1 peroxide 2 water & borax till it can & #39;t take anymore and still dissolve , her report she posted from a vet says peroxide is a penetrant.. I will try this on top of my baths for a while. Fritos vet report said you could posiibly sub msm instead of the peroxide .

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 , Many of your receipts probably turned black because they are thermal paper. Receipts like from gas station pumps, grocery stores, maybe Atm's use a specially treated paper that is heated where the letters are written causing the letter to show up. If you heat that paper up it will quickly turn black or brown. You can usually tell thermal paper because the paper is kind of glossy. > >> > > > > > >> > > > > Well I have to say after reading and learning what has to be > >> done > >> > > to > >> > > > > eradicate these mites I have to say I am so very overwhelmed. > >> I > >> > > just > >> > > > > cannot believe the extreme at which one has to go to in order > >> to > >> > > kill > >> > > > > them and rid them from your home.
