blowdrying hair after washing,mascara with aloe in it for the eyes,witch hazel,and cornstarch powder in underwear-for the laundry, use boric acid with your detergent-all cotton garmets seem to be most affected. i was just informed by a friend that another friend that works at a woodmill in rockford,michigan has also been infected by this organism. when is this going to be identified? ronnie

///////,
I have had this since,1-2000. And I have done all of those same things. That everyone else has done. Now, that I know. What I have. And have been having for the last 2 years. I realized, how could we all be having the same symptoms? And not know what these things are? For 1. They stay forever, 2. They seem to only bother certain people, 3. They are black, white,brownish,tannish orange at cetain stages. 4. Some of them seem to like the light & some of them don't like the light,or it seems that way. 5.They bite your skin and in your scalp,they will cut it at the scalp. And they will leave you bald with no hair at all.I have very little left on my arms now. And I didn't shave. 6. They leave little red bumps under the skin, little trails. These are where they lay there eggs. Which are shiny crystal looking and hard. 7. They are everywhere in the air floating.(actually that is tiny bits of lint flying everywhere. From all that they have eaten. They love cotton clothing. So,no matter how much washing you do. They are right back on your clothes, eating away at them and your skin. They love wool the best. They love to eat anything and everything. They ball up in the lint left behind. They must be fat happy little critters. They are also in the air ducts, warm dark places,closets,pantries,basement furnaces, carpets,floors,in the furniture, behind the washer-dryer, 8. Well, it seems we have a big problem. All the money spent. All the work we have done. Now, what do we think? This critter could be? Well, it's not any monsters. Its not something we can't get rid of. It is not a parasite. Even though it acts like it. You would think someone by now. Could figure it out. Well, I would like to enlighten all of you. If, all of you have what I have. Then these are curable. And yes, someday soon. You can stop the medications. Because you will be cured. Without all that money being spent. So, you can live a happy normal life. What we are dealing with here. Has been here for centuries. They live outside. And can easily come in from outside. Believe it or not it is the "THE CARPET BEETLE"!!! COMMONLY KNOW AS THE MUSEUM BEETLES. The Black, the white,the orange brownish or tannish beetle. And yes, you can get them again. But, you must always remember. Other people have them too. And may not be bothered by them.I have the proof in a jar. Had it anaylzed. So, believe it are not. The black beetle is the stubborn one. Very hard to kill. But, I promise...That we can get rid of these things permanently. And we will finally be over them for good. CHEERS!!!

Briefly, what affects me is mainly confined to the scalp and neck and face.I have had this for twenty years.
Delsun Blue 2%(prescription) had some palliative effect.
Nizoral about the same.
DMSO, Tea Tree Oil, heal lesions but don't prevent.
Grapefruit Seed Extract every other day spotted around scalp and neck and then blended in thoroughly keeps the affliction at bay, but skip a couple of days and back come the bumps, stings, itch, etc.
Clothes are washed in hottest water and dried at high heat. Only borax and an iodine solution from farm store, called a Surgical Scrub, are used for washing. Carpets are cleaned with a so-called "steamer" in which same cleaning agents are used.
I am currently using the complete Hulda Clark protocol for parasites and environmental pollution. Will be trying the zapper on the scalp area soon. This is a low-voltage, high frequency signal generator. Will soon have a high tech frequency generator and analyzer and may be able to identify the characteristic frequencies of the offending varmints. This could help in identifying the critters and giving them a name.
I have damaged hearing and have not been able to use the Clark Syncrometer for matching specimens with known samples on slides and such. Thus the frequency route. Best wishes, BT.

Hi turtle bud, 20 years oh my, Ive been sick for 4 years now,
all the family got it at the same time. It sure does amaze me with all the people having mostly the same, that in itself is unique. I used herbs in the beginning but now I use to wash veggies. Im curious about the inf being only in the head and neck
area, there seems to be many with this. I have them everywhere, but the head and neck affected badly,seizures, dizzy. I have run across something Ive found interesting, its about a species of tick. microscopic and seems to be fond of the head area. after 20 years, youve probably heard about everything. your insight is very important. Im preparing a report, now its more like a book.
anyway, i know your input would be greatly appriciated.
kbear.

Hi All, The things that have helped me the most have been Hydrogen peroxide, sulfur, ivermectin, and John F.'s excalibur oil. I'm also experimenting with a product i bought thru the newspaper, it's called Acadia skin care, it is for seborrhea, psoriasis, and bad dandruff. I got it because I have a very bad dermatitis on my left hand, it is scaly and sometimes developes into deep fissures. Well it has helped to clear up my hand to almost the point of complete healing. So I thought, mabe I should try this on areas of movement, when I first spray it on I get alot of movement, but then it slows to a stop.... I'm going to keep experimenting with it and I will keep you all posted. The active ingredient in it is pyrithione zinc 0.25%, other ingredients include aloe ver extract, propylene glycol, and willowherb extract. If I remember correctly some on the board have had some luck with zinc. I'll let everyone know how it goes.

Hi All,
Other than the everyday cleaning routine,
I've found that Nutragena T-Gel shampoo &
conditioner (kills fungus) works great all over.
Also I alternate with the Desert Essence.
After vacumming, sprinkling Borax on carpets.
But "MOST OF ALL" soaking your clothes B-4
washing them, (John F.'s directions): 1 cup
bleach / whites & 1 cup ammonia colors, at
least 30 mins. ITS UNBELIEVEABLE!!!! What a
difference!!!!!!!!!!Please try this... Hel

I will not stress enough about BORIC ACID POWDER!!! It kills them or it dead. On floors,clothes,carpet,bedding,& bathing. Boric Acid is a little safer than Clorax baths. Clorox will cause the splits in your skin. Also, drys the skin out. I put about 1/2 Cup Boric Acid Powder. Poured into a gallon of hot water. Mix well until it all dissolved. Put into a milk jug or plastic container. Make sure you mark it Boric Acid solution. Because once its clear. It looks like regular drinking water. And someone might use it for something else. I put a big X on it in several places on the plastic jug. I use it in washing the clothes. Kill whatever is on them. And the fussies out to. It will not fade your clothes. The bleach ruined all my clothes. Used for mopping the floors. In bathroom and in kitchen/dining area. Wiping down cabinets. It will not harm you. Unless you try to drink it. Then you will have problems.I am sure you all know how to handle stuff like this. It gets rid of every known critter on the face of the earth. Plus it kills fungus. I only bathe twice a week in the boric acid. About 1 cup in a tub of hot water. I just pour it in. I also wash my hair in it. When the infestation began. But, now once a week. They are only small little blue/black slithers. Sort of like tiny sharp pins. When I wipe them off of my skin. They are no longer tiny black specks. Its leaving stubbornly. But, none the less. Going day by day. Just remember, I got one years rest. From this stuff. And I used the same solution. Except, I wasn't smart enough to keep using. Until, somehow I got them on me again. I will not forget anymore. Boric Acid also kills fungus. So, you good people. Please take my advice. It hasn't killed me yet. I use epsom salt. For alternate bathing. And sometimes sea or table salt. When I am out of Epsom. I use extra sulpur powder. With the Selsun Blue dandruff shampoo. When I feel I have used too much Boric Acid. I change around. I try not to over do. To give my skin some relief. Mositurizing is very important. Any strong lotion or cream will help.
I use the solution of wintergreen alcohol. Water & Boric Acid. The other alcohol is too strong for inhaling. I spray it on everything possible. I even used it on my white cloth lamp shades. The little black specks were inside my lamp shades. They are attracted to light. That is why you feel more movement. When the lights are on. I sprayed..now they are gone. You do not have to use the wintergreen. The Boric Acid by itself will work okay.
Also, you can buy pin worm medicine. Over the counter for those inside the intestinal area. It was at Walmart. I'll look again.
Routine sheet changing, dusting,mopping,washing clothes,etc....
Here is my history of health problems for the past 7 years.
Trying to stay away from sugars. I am diabetic type #2. Diagnosed about three months ago. Overweight and High Cholesterol. I have been on Thyroid medicine called Synthroid, since 1997. Never helped me lose weight. Never brought down my cholesterol. I have high B/P. And an overly fast heartbeat. I've taken Tenormin, since 1994. For that problem. I take Premarin for Estrogen. I've had a complete hyterectomy. If, anyone can diagnose me. Because we all could be doctors. With all the research,that has been done. Or if you've had simular health problems. Please let me know. Maybe the medicine regimen has something to do with my health problem. And this crazy disease that we have. Well, sorry I wrote to much. Take care, Marie

I think you are 100 percent correct about boric acid powder and solution. I have been afraid to make up the solution or put it in laundry because of the fumes. I have emphysema-- chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
As a result of your message,I've decided to try it in laundry loads. I use an apartment community laundry and the parasites (phorids)are in the room and in the equipment.

Sorry, the name of the pin worm medicine is called PIN-X.
You can buy it at Walmart Stores in the drug department.
I also use these products. To draw the eggs out of the skin. And kills the adult larvae. I use Vick's vapor rub. On my body extremities. All over. It smells, but that's okay. I just say I have a cold. These critters hate it. I use arthritis & sports relief Gel. By JASON. It is called COOLING TEA TREE OIL & PAIN RELIEVER MINERAL GEL. If you know of any other better product. Let me know. Because,it known as being the best in the world.
Made from 100% Natural Pain Fighters. Extracted only from the leaves of the Australian Tea Tree-Melaleuca Alternifolia, known throughout Australia as "the medicine kit in a bottle".This bush remedy is an excellent natural germicide and anticeptic. 48 organic compounds in tea tree oil work synergistically in JASON formulas to promote maximum healing.
Ingredients contain: Sunflower Oil, Sesame Oil, Olive Oil(Virgin) High-Oleic Soy Oil, Oil of Wintergreen (Methyl Salicylate),Austrialian Tea Tree Oil(Melaleuca Alternifolia)Avocado Oil, Castor Oil, Menthol,Jojoba Wax And imported Moisturizing oils, Primrose oil, hazelnut Oil, Camelia Oil, Squalane(Vege) Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E.)& Panthenol.
This sounds like a miracle ingredients. And can be found in your local stores.By Jason Natural Cosmetics, Mfr in Culver City, CA. 90232-2484. Whoever lives in CA should be able to find it.
I have been using it. To draw them out. It opens the pores of the skin. And kills them. Plus it moisturizes at the same time. I know you can't use it at work. It has a strong odor like the Vick's. But, at night it will help. You may not be able to get close to your mate. But, hey whatever works for you. I sit at this computer. Which makes them worse. I put it on me. And they start popping out. I rub my fingers across my skin. Feel them and wipe it onto a soft tissue. They are hard like eggs. I should have bought me a microscope. Would really like to see them up close.I still can see with the naked eye. Which helps me indentify. There is something there under my skin. No DOP here.
You must use a couple of hours. Before you take a bath or shower with hot water. It will give you direction on how to use it. Just use your common sense.
I think this will help many. Who still have them in the skin. The product is healthy and will not harm you. It is all natural. Maybe like John F's (Excaliber Oil.) Not sure whats in his ingredients. Never used it. Don't know where to find it either.
Take care...Marie

Howdy All,
I"ve also been wearing gloves in the shower,
as my hands(fingers mostly) are the most infected,
trying to keep the little buggers out of my head.
Has anyone tried 'Basis' soap? The'All Clear' bar.
Seems to work pretty well,makes me feel REALLY

Hi Hel,
Here are a couple of ideas to keep your hands in decent shape.
Soak them in epsom salt or borax solution with a few drops rosemary, lavender, tea tree or a combination solution.
Wash them with surgical scrub.
Cut your fingernails short, use a nail scrubber also.
I'd heard that using nail polish is helpful, but I think you gotta concern yourself with what gets under the nail more.
Hope this helps.
Love and comfort, Sue

I hope you receive the attachment this time. I have been running around
going crazy trying to open my shop and have not had much time to email
lately. So, sorry for the delay.
When I originally found this site it contained pictures of fuzz balls
identical to the pictures on the //////// site. I do not know why they deleted
them from the site but the information is the same. I cured myself and
continue to be cured 1 1/2 years later. Following is what I did. Hope it
helps.
1)Multi Vitamin
2)MSM vitamin--- it cleans the blood, this is a systemic problem.
3)Astragulus-- it is an immune booster
4)Pau d arco tea--- it is an anti fungus tea
5)Drink plenty of water to flush out your system
6)Stick to a candida diet as best as possible, no sugar, no bread, no fruit
(natural sugar), NO VINEGAR, no preservatives, etc
7)Acidopolus (spelling ?) to add good bacteria into your body to fight the
bad bacteria. The powder form in the fridge section is best.
8)Be sure to have a good bowel movement everyday. Take citracell daily and
consider a colonics irrigation to get your colon good and clean and rid your
self of the bad bacteria that is in your system. Flax seed meal is also
great to sprinkle on your food ( My doctor reccomends this)
**** One final thing, STOP all the experimental things you are trying out of
desperation, they do not work and they weaken the immune system even
further.
