it says anti-parisitic, thats what mites are. I wouldnt hesitate to try it. right now I am using synergy labs antiseptic/antifungal for an itchy rash on myself and the relief is noticable - it is almost gone. you cant find good remedies in the human department as well as you can the pet dept.

I used it to clean the house of scabies, which I believe are smaller than head lice. It was very effective in clearing out the scabies on the beds, furniture, floors, etc. I cleaned everything with it and did not feel I had any residual chemicals throughout the house. It worked, that's what I liked about it and you choose how much to dilute it. (2-4 oz per gallon, I used 3oz.)

The mites can come from the soil and from your clothes so try to wear clean clothes and shoes in your garden. Another great thing to try is beneficial nematoads they kill most pest in soil and on plants I use Dr. Pye's Scanmasks easy spray formula. Its a great killer of mites and then acts as a constent deterent within the soul. Another thing to try is azamax, and try to use different treatments every 3 to 4 days untill they are gone and when they are gone do a weekly rotating spray of either neem oil, pyrethum, azamax, Dr Rosenthals zero tollerance or organic castile soaps or nematoads. The best way to fight mites is to never get them . The mites can come from the soil and from your clothes so try to wear clean clothes and shoes in your garden.

I use it I with other ingredients to make a liquid mixture to get rid of ticks and chiggers that attach to skin but do not know if it would affect cockroaches. Maybe the smell would drive them away but do not know.

Yes, it should. You have to completely clean and treat their enclosure also and remember to re treat a few times a week apart to kill newly hatched mites.

Not that I know of. I'm not even sure it kills fleas. I have 22 cats, and I gave them all one of these flea pills, with a high fat content meal. Did it kill the fleas for awhile? I'm not sure, but they have fleas again now. Of course it might work better if you just have one or two cat's in your house. I also gave a pill to one of my outside cat's and it worked on him. But mites? I don't think so.

It works excellent on spiders. I am not sure on the mites, but I know it kills fire ants and anything that kills them I'm sure would kill a mite.

It did not work to well with bedbugs; so I doubt it will work well with dust mites... I would try to find something else

I don't think so! It says that it is for fleas and tricks only! Safe to apply on cats and dogs, but does not treat mites!

Yes. Some forms of mange (the mites) are transferable to humans. There is nothing in the formula that would hurt a human. It is just the 3 ingredients: sulfur, camphor (the strongest odor you smell), and mineral oil. It is the consistency of Desitin ointment and must be shaken vigorously to keep it mixed. Now that my dogs are clear, I have used it on my contact dermatitis with wonderful results. I also hear that it can be used on acne, any rash, any itchy condition. Use it sparingly...it goes a long way. If it gets too thick, you can thin it with baby oil. If you prefer less of a greasy feel, you can put a small amount in a dish and mix in a bit of corn starch. I hope this helps.

Mange is a mite and for it you need something to kill and smother the mites that burrow under the skin. Now my dog was originally misdiagnosed at the vet for mange which she of course didn't have so the medicine for it didn't work. I know girls in rescue have been using neem oil for mites but I don't know if I would trust it. I would take a dog to the vet for that. This shampoo is for fungal and microbial skin problems and just happens to work for my dogs staph infection in her skin.

Yes it can. A good friend of mine had several bug bites that itched like crazy. Her Nigerian friend put red African palm oil on the bites, and they disappeared almost instantly. So, yes, definitely!

I don't know forsure but I'd say yes if you wash all ur clothing in it and bag up air tight any other bedding pillows ect. It does kill scabbies if mixed with lotion. For lice I'd use nix! Then permethrine in and around the house. Make sure to use unscented and only 5% permetrine with 5% lotion 10% permethrine mixed with about 1/3 cup lotion I think is 5% like the doctors stuff

Yes, this detergent kills dust mites in any temperature water. It smells like a natural cleaner rather than the scented laundry soaps we are use to. It reminds me of an Aveda salon.

Have I applied it to dust mites then looked at their dead bodies thru magnification??? No! But knowing what I know about UV a, b, & c waves, I cannot imagine a dust mite could survive such punishment. If you have a dust mite problem, remember that only thru dedication to eradication will solve your problem. As good as this product is, don't expect a one time application to do the trick...those little buggers know how to hide.

Mange is caused by mites that burrow under the skin. When they surface to reproduce they need to come into contact with the DE, which will pierce their exoskeleton and cause them to dehydrate. I know this because I used DE to get rid of scabies, which is essentially mange on humans. Just be prepared for some eye irritation as DE is scratchy! . Not sure if the mite follows the same life cycle in dogs as in humans; if so you'll need to reapply the stuff after a week or two when the eggs that were laid under the skin hatch and the itching starts up again in force.

My guess is that it probably is reasonably effective on chiggers. As you know, I was somewhat put off by the smell of the product and didn't take the time to adequately test it for chiggers.
