Guest guest Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Hi!DE at all cracks and crevices + along all floor boards was good for us. Also Borax and Ammonia in the washing machine. An IGR (growth inhibitor) also slowed the mites down for us. KR Cecilia From: true4free <no_reply >bird mites Sent: Sunday, February 5, 2012 8:30 PMSubject: Some questions- ivermectin and baths 1. What kind of ivermectin for internal, and how much? 2. Some people have suggested Ivermectin topically? What kind, how much, how?3. Some suggestions on doing a soak bath - I've seen suggestions that included borax, vinegar, etc. What works? (for mites)4. How long do you need to stay on the doxycycline?5. I've seen suggestions on a long list of things sprayed in the house- Lysol, borax, etc. etc. DE, etc. has anybody found something truly effective? I'm a bit frustrated with the list, in that we seem to see a lot of ineffective, or possibly effective cures, but without a lot of follow up, and a lot of time spent on springtails, morgellons, Lyme, etc. not that those aren't important, but if we had a top ten list of what we know empirically works against the mites, that would be awesome.
