there are thousands of mite species, and I know four that live on humans.
- ear mites/dust mites… interchangeable and I’ll treat them as the same
- demodex mites
- spider mites… or more precisely, the nymph of the spider mites
- Scabies
They all need different treatments, but those other sites don’t differentiate… they say “a mite is a mite” and therefore, when you read the site, you leave with more confusion than clarity. At least I did.
People try treatments for other mites, and don’t understand that it won’t work, because each mite is different.
People mix 7-8 different things, and have no idea what worked and what didn’t… if something seems to be working. I can sympathize: they want to get rid of the critters as fast as possible. Most don’t.
More and more confusion results.
