Turmeric with ginger and garlic made into a paste and scrubbed all over will help, as will clove oil. Remember to stay calm in mind as you have to go through many different stages to get these little buggers under control. I also took turmeric mixed in natural yoghurt to help on the inside. Getting to the beach for a swim or a scrub with sea salt and water also helped me.

Hi everyone - My 86 year old Mother has had a mysterious parasite (I believe demedox) but to get any help from anyone - Doctors - Dermatologists - Hospitals has been a trial in itself. She has now been admitted to a Mental Health Unit whilst I am trying to get someone to diagnose her for this condition. I have now contracted them myself and have been soaking in a hot bath with turmeric - it really really does help!! Am also washing my hair in teatree shampoo with extra 100% tea tree oil in it and using vinegar on my body. I seem to be improving and I really do credit the turmeric baths - when I get out of the bath the itching has stopped right away - and definitely do it at night as that's when these blighters procreate. Good luck everyone!!
