Very interesting, CriticalThinking. Please let us know how it works out for you! :-)

The only thing I would be leery of is killing them off too fast, but if you have an extreme infestation, I guess I can understand that this may be the only and best way.

I developed a couple of nasty boils on my face after killing off these things too fast, but who knows? Maybe I would have developed them, anyway. I just worry about dumping too many dead parasites into our systems at one time and our bodies not being able to handle it.

How long have you been dealing with the mites, if you don't mind me asking? And when did you discover that this was your problem?

Salt and potassium-lots of both and water.

Dear friends, This is the final posting for me because my rosacea is either cured or in remission. Without the homeopathic treatment which I will now detail for you, I would have lost all the beauty of my face and been consigned to living in the shadows figuratively and literally because of the very painful effects of sunlight and even electric lighting on severe rosacea skin. First off, I give thanks and glory to God, the Father of Christ Jesus because it was He who enlightened my thinking to understand the rosacea problem. Here it is : GET RID of DEMODEX MITES- AND - KEEP THEM AWAY ! Here are your weapons. Internally: garlic pills, clove tea, wasabi (ingest w/ coconut milk rice), unflavored slightly salted almonds, all cranberry juice, pineapple juice, papaya juice, aloe vera juice, (twice the amount of the other juices), grapefruit seed extract(GSE),, I think that's it. Externally: TTO every 2 hours for 3 days, (must stay home). SKIN WILL LOOK HORRIBLE DURING THIS TREATMENT and will sting and exfoliate. Mites will flee this TTO, so sit on edge of tub with a heavy salt solution of 3 inches in which they may drop and die. On the 3rd day, use a gentle exfoliating scrub like apricot scrub, (gently) and also en exfoliating clay mud. Let clay dry before rinsing off. You should really trey not to go out in public for one week during this phase. If unable, then at least 3 days. HOUSE: deep carpet cleaning by pros- OR - remove and replace w/ new carpet- OR - better yet a hard flooring. MUST wash all bed linen DAILY in ALL HOT water to which you add 1 cup clorox or 1 cup borax. Linen must soak in this for 45 minutes in addition to using the longest wash cycle. Same goes for towels. ONLY use any towel that touches any part of your body ONCE. Then wash same as above. Dry in hottest cycle. I suggest you put the pretty towels away and purchase very thin all white cotton for this treatment in order to save on the bulk of the laundry. IKEA sells these. NO PETS IN BED EVER ! unless thy are ONLY indoor and NEVER walk in soil and dirt and are fully "sanitized" EVEN SO... Get them a cage bed next to you. NO PETS in your living areas. Confine then to a garden room when inside and DAILY vaccuum and sprinkle that room w/ a carpet powder insecticide that is pet-safe. NO PETS against your face or licking you ! No going barefoot anywhere, even in the wet sand at the beach or in the water. Wear water shoes. Protect feet at the gym ! Wash hands frequently throughout day w/out becoming OCD, please. Esp. important to wash after touching pets. Scratch face w/ clean paper tissue- OR- back of hand ALWAYS. BATHING: For 3 months, daily salt water baths with skin scrubbing brush which you sterilize after w/ alcohol. Sterilize toothbrush the same after every use. You can re-use alcohol for at least 1 week. BUY the cheapest salt possible like water softener salt or ice cream salt. FINALLY: THE BIGGEST GUN in YOUR ARSENAL is; FIR (Far-Infrared-Sauna) SAUNA. MUST be infrared. Ingest at least 2 garlic pills before using. Wipe sweat w/ towel. Shower immediately afterward. Sit in ti as it heats to 140 F. Stay at 140 for 20 minutes. PLEASE research the sauna sites before purchasing. It MUST be FIR (Far-Infrared-Sauna) sauna and it must be 135 to 140 to kill the mites and their eggs. It is worth it. ALTERNATIVE METHOD : Research the DEAD SEA SPAS in Israel and Jordan as they have used these methods for centuries to cure multiple "incurable skin diseases". Much easier on you. Time required for "the cure" may be 28 days.IMPORTANT: MITES are contagious, but ongoing use of these methods ( at a much lower frequency) will keep you from becoming re-infested. I use sauna 2x week. Salt scrub bath at night almost daily. TTO applied lightly EVERY night. Bed linen once a week. Pillowcases DAILY. Juices, clove tea GSE, garlic daily ! Wasabi EOD or every 3rd day. An hour of sunlight per week is also helpful. Use every thing in small amounts to safeguard against adverse side effects. Too much of anything listed here can land you in the ER or worse. GOD BLESS. Sing praises to God as you treat because you will need His help in your spirit. Humble yourself also and resolve to live a life of contrition and love and wisdom.

also coconut oil and green tea is helpful. as my head gets itchier(hopefully from dieoff and running across the scalp and face) I used coconut oil in my nose and facial hair and ears followed by germX hand sanitizer thickly. this and the tea tree and eucalyptus are having some effect for sure. Hopefully an increase in the MSM will get me off alcohol, Sugar and gluten at least a little.
