I'm sure the CDC and American officials and doctors have heard enough about this to know its a real problem now , America didn't all become dillusional at once and netheir did the movie theatre I left earlier as the entire audience walked out the theatre wiping they're nose and scratching they're heads and faces as this seems to be the bugs favorite spots , I think they lay dormant in me and wait to get around other hosts and sprawl up , because when I'm alone I feel almost nothing besides the occasional itch and sting but when I'm around new people it Gos crazy and everyone gets attacked and fast it amazes me how fast this thing can reach someone's face from fifty feet across the room .. THIS IS A BIOHAZARD AND I AM ON THE VERGE OF GOING IN THE DESERT AND LIVING IN A TENT , as now no one wants me around they're home as they finally realized its me that brings the sensations around , and the ones that love me so much to tell me it's ok even by risking being infested themselves I just can't risk giving my kids and family this disease , I've tried all mite creams and remedys Same as lice and bedbugs , my hair , my teeth have all started falling out and I'm 26 , this thing hides internally in us and can come out in a heartbeat , it also attracts almost any insect to my body now as well , my dentist , my doctors can all feel it , but none knows how to help , I want to kill myself , I have personally wrote emails to CDC BEGGING FOR HELP AND TELLING THEM HOW CONTAGIOUS AND INTRICATE THIS DISEASE IS , they don't seem to concerned , and I won't get into the real crazy stuff on here either like the white fuzz o notice travel with me and around me everywhere I go as well ...LIKE I SAID THIS IS A REAL BIOHAZARD AND I HAVE NOWHERE TO GO OR TURN NOW , I can't get a job because it's so serious that anyone close to me knows something is wrong , I want to kill myself ... -

I have been suffering for close to 5 years with this. It began soon after a surgical repair of prolapse organs . First was just a couple of pimple like bumps that turned into dime sized lesions. This continued to spread. I now have stage 3-4 Ulcerations on various parts of my body. All started with a cyst type bump under the skin. T he cyst become a blister that opened and this is where the mites are . They are congregated around hair follicles. Skin scrapping and samples of the microscopic debris that are all over me , shows a very high density ofDemodex mites . I purchased my own own digital microscope and did this myself, as several doctors told me that I was delusional ... without even looking at the areas first. When my new puppy showed signs of this , I took her to our veterinarian( who thankfully is a close family member and owns her own animal clinic. She is highly respected amongst her piers) Veterinarian took a sample from my puppy and diagnosed demodex . That is when I shared my own investigation with her . I was able to show her the pictures,and video that I took with my microscope. She was hesitant, but she also knowns the hell that I have been through. She agreed, to take a scrapping from my skin and test it as well. She agreed that I did indeed have demodex mites. These mites,have completely ruined my life . I am an educated, motivated woman with a family and with dreams. I WAS achieving many when this crushed them. I was a partner in a very successful business. I worked extremely hard for years to get to that point . I loved my work. I worked with young athletes, training them to be competitive. I was running a mentor program for children, assisting them in gaining life skills . I was helping those who could not afford it, earn scholarships so that they could attend college. My business was a safe place for kids to go, to be accepted, to learn, to train.Each year,we helped over 150 kids through our programs. I had to give that up. I had to give up on THEM. I have never done anything so difficult . walking away from those kids and my business was devastating. I was and am.still not in any position to help anyone anymore, I can no longer help myself. These mites have completely taken over , not just my skin (which is horrifying), but they can be found in my scalp, my eyelashes and under my eyelids. They are in my stool and my urine. I have large cyst areas inside my ears, that reoccurringly open . The left is so bad that the opening is entirely obstructed. They are in my nose, and around my cuticles. The worst are my breasts. I will not make that horror public , but recently lymph nodes under my armpits have swollen., I have an ultrasound scheduled for the end of the week. The mites drain my energy so badly that I physically can not get out of bed some days. When I can, I am continuously exhausted and short of breath. I believe this has had an impact on my cognitive abilities, as I forget eaREPORT COMMENTS

FWIW, I believe that the bugs are being distributed in commercial packing materials, among other ways. I had some dishes (no paper or cloth) sent from two different relative's houses in another state, from two different postal service stores that packed them for mailing, and the bugs were stuck in the packing tape from both locations. Ditto for an order of pet food from an online supplier. The shipping boxes were stamped "Made in " - could there be a connection there? They were all over the office, especially on a floor full of H1b visa holders that I visited only a few times a year. I could fill up a lint roller with the bugs after sitting in a particular conference room on that floor. I have seen these bugs on the dressing room floor at TJ Maxx ( immediately as I walked in, not after I was there for a while). They were all over a pair of yoga pants at Ross, and before you tell me that I should expect that at cheap stores (which I go to now because it's pointless to buy good clothing since it all becomes infested so quickly and I throw it out), they were on some hanging clothing at J.Jill and Dillard's. They were all over the stitching of a reusable quilted bed pad at the hospital at which my husband had surgery yesterday (before he got onto the bed). I didn't say anything to him because they don't bother him and he doesn't believe me, though his clothing is covered with them. They are on toilet seats at restaurants (not like we sit on those, but they dropped off of someone) and the glitter is on restaurant bathroom floors between tiles. We need help to identify why they only come after some of us, and find a way to change our physical chemistry, strengthen our immune systems, or whatever it takes, because these suckers are EVERYWHERE!REPORT COMMENTS

CDC, it's time to stop the coverup. At the rate this is spreading and destroying peoples lives, you are going to get it too. I would not wish this on my worst enemy, but you and the "health care professionals" who deny and add to our suffering by branding us as delusional are worse than my worst enemy, so I hope you get some "first-hand motivation" to identify this scourge and distribute a cure.

It is terrible how this is not being addressed. All I find in my own searches is the magnitude of how it is affecting people. No one seems to acknowledge this is happening or have any answers or cures. We are fighting a battle against some creature that is microscopic and stealth. Difficult if not almost impossible to eradicate. I am unable to do my job since I am struggling with everything within my power to keep this from taking over here. I am surmising it is a mite from a wild bird or a mite from a rat or squirrel. I too have samples and wish someone cared. I am having to self treat as what a Dr. has advised is inadequate. I have contacted the Health District and the Department of Agriculture This is going to be (possibly already is epidemic) an invisible bug plague epidemic worldwide. PLEASE take this serious.REPORT COMMENTS

I urge you all to take this illness very seriously. It is highly contagious and translucent. It is being missed on every test because we don't know what it is so we can't kill it. Instead it is making people miserable and sucking the life out of us, literally. I have proof this is real. I see it everyday and have samples, pictures, and videos. I have sent in so many samples to get negative results EVERYTIME. It is so frustrating If I CSN see it and take pictures of it then our researchers should be able to come up w something so ask yourself if anything smells fishy to u. It will be in your family next if u don't start realizing that all these people can't be nuts. This is a very smart adaptive and almost invisible parasite that is killing me. Do your research. Look at the doctors who are trying to help patients. Look at the symptoms. Look at the patterns on everyone's skin and the shapes and larva coming out of people and start doing something to save us before its in your family and your child lies there suffering every day with parasites eating them alive only to be told there is nothing there. WAKE UP. THERE IS SOMETHING THERE AND IT IS AWFUL AND CREEPY AND MAKING SO MANY PEOPLE SUFFER IN SO MANY WAYS. PLEASE HELP US AND START REALLY RESEARCHING THIS BECAUSE ITS REAL AND IT IS DEFINITELY CONTAGIOUS. I pray for resolution. Please give us some answers. This thing has morphed into an illness that is quite specific and so much more common that it is scary. I can see it on actors and actresses faces and body on the TV. Now that is scary and true. I can identity it on others because I have researched it so much on my own body. Mites are coming out in my urine and no one sees it. But I can take pictures of it. I am being bitten right now and it is awful. I wish I was delusional. It would be so much easier to be crazy. I truly wish I was because this alternative is just too awful to bear. Please help us. Do valid research. Use people who have proof. Have sores on their back. Have a long history of it. All u would have to do would be to get a high powered microscope, a microbiologist, and me in a room for an hour and u will see this is not in my head or anyone else's. This is a high tech parasite that has morphed and become so translucent it is not visible on any tests. But u can see it w a microscope. So why hasn't it been identified. So sad but it smells like a duck and walks like a duck it's a duck. Well this is a conspiracy. Please stop denying that this is real and start helping us get rid of it. Before it is too late.REPORT COMMENTS

Burrowing egg laying mating defecating biting the skin and dinky little permithrin even at high percentages aint cutting it. YES VERY SUBTLE AT FIRST AND ULTRA CONTAGIOUS... WE ARE SURELY SURELY HEADED FOR PLAGUE LEVEL OR EPIDEMIC LEVEL AND REGRETFULLY THE CDC IS NOT ON TOP OF THIS OR HAS A CLUE WHERE TO BEGIN. Ultra sonic sound devices, lasers, air blasting, cryotherapy, high percentage rotenone etc. New treatments MUST BE AGGRESSIVELY explored. Please please please CDC start taking this very seriously. Some of these critters do carry secondary bacteria infections etc. Nightmare in our midst.REPORT COMMENTS

Been battling biting mites for a year. Borax gives your temp relief but doesn't kill the eggs. Every few days a new batch hatchs. .Nothing works. Ordered Kleen Green earlier getting it tomorrow. It's an enzyme designed to kill them little mothers. Trying Neem oil tonight. What happened to the old lice shampoo we used in the 70's . That killed all bugs. Need some ddt. Deet keeps them off until new hatch.REPORT COMMENTS

My symptoms began as feather-like touches on my skin when I entered my home...my ankles, legs, everywhere my skin was exposed; almost comparable to spider webbing. Then I could feel my hair on my scalp and brows & eyelashes move. What followed was an un-deniable biting on the backs of my arms, temples, back and scalp. We could see something flying in the light at night, but they were fast, tiny and relentless, especially after sunset. In the beginning, we made light of it by making packing tape hats to catch them landing in our hair. It became obvious very soon, that it wasn't anything close to funny. I knew something very dark was going on with this evil crap and my health. I guess a turning point for me (or one of them) was the day I got in the shower, began washing my hair (long healthy thick hair). I applied my usual daily shampoo and my hair wadded into a tight knot that freaked me out to the point of a panic attack. May not seem like that big of a deal but it was like something out of a nightmare. I could not comb the tangles out, even with conditioner. Every shampooing since then, I get wads of my hair mixed with whatever glues these evil bastards to me on my hands and they fall in the bottom of the tub. I have very thin, broken, straw-like hair if you want to call it hair. I have on a daily basis,.opaque to reddish brown spots or specs on my face, eyebrows, hair, and neck. Very strange that the light or how the light shines on these things changes their color and your ability to see them.. At first I thought I was just losing my mind/menopause/ looney. I may be all that too but I've been in hell with something consuming me from the inside out as well. I had them in my mouth, eyes, nose, all points of entry. I had to eventually have all teeth pulled starting one at a time., I had a pituitary tumor (large adenoma below my brain stem removed last Thursday, I was going blind from the pressure, not to mention the extreme unbearable headaches. I am 99,9 % sure it's all related. I'm tired so Ill say more later. Be strong and lets find a way to kick some serious vermin ass .REPORT COMMENTS

So that we are all on the same page, Let's list the symptoms. 1. Stabbing needle-like pain. Then, 2. burrowing the needle into the skin These mites are everywhere, such as, 1. eyes 2. ears 3. feet 4. under toenails 5. urinary tract 6. anus 7. scalp 8. vas deferens 9. testicles 10. kidney 11. bladder 12. mouth 13. throat 14. fingers and under fingernails 15. back 16. everywhere These Mites get into the air, such as, 1. vacuum cleaner without HEPA filter 2. air conditioning without filter 3. storage, after a year Mainly, I'm interested in cataloging symptoms. I think it's an unclassified species of Demodex. But, how it can deliver such a powerful, stabbing pain, is unbelievable. I would never believe that an animal 120 microns in size could cause such a painful bite. I look forward to your comments. The most important, What are your symptoms.REPORT COMMENTS

I first noticed it about a year ago , i was hoping it would let up , I tried every type of mite cream alcohol and remedy one could do to rid of the parAsites that I know exist , especially because everyone I know has Em now and feels them just like me , and I can get symptoms to stop but they always return no matter where I go however many new clothes I buy , and the reason is the remedy my work temporally to get them off but they come right back and I'm a strong believer that it is all the little micro bugs that have always existed among us but stayed on grass and mold , my theory is there is something airborne or we maybe something we invested via food bought from stores , that is causing us to attract all these insects into our body thinking we are mold , ther is no new micro bug , but instead it is the same micro bugs that always existed except now they are over populated or want to eat us alive because we smell like mold or fungus due to something else maybe morgellons or maybe some new fungus or airborne connection I strongly believe this is what is going on ..REPORT COMMENTS

I live in terror for my children. What kind of life will they have plagued by this because people who can help are too ignorant, narcisstic and afraid to face the truth. Eventually enough people in the right places and their own families and children will suffer unbearably and then maybe they will pull their heads out of their asses and organize a legitimate health movement on it. Or they'll just privately get their own help and let the rest of us suffer. How anyone could stand back and allow this suffering, especially of innocent children, and make it worse even by claiming the afflicted and parents desperate to help their children are crazy, defies the very core of humanity. May God forgive you. Personally I believe this is a synergy of fungus, bacteria and parasites creating a biotoxin illness in the body and the primary catalyst is a mite. Finally, after 15 years of increasing symtpoms and trying to save myself and my children with a hodge podge of environmental and internal intensive regimens I finally found a doctor that I think can help.REPORT COMMENTS

I moved to San Pedro, CA and noticed some bug jumping on me by the second night in new apartment. Pest control couldn't find anything, but sprayed anyway. I still experienced issues and I couldn't sleep at night. Then my friend suggested a citronella candle. There were tons of little black bugs inside candle. There were black specs in my bed. I have spent so much money on Drs., new clothes, moving and even a new vehicle- and still am experiencing issues. I totally believe these are springtails based on what I've found in my bed and in candles. There are approx. 4000 different types of collembola. I am totally not convinced that all 4000 have been studied properly. I was referred to UC infectious disease where I was told that "springtails" as parasites is "controversial". I replied "I'm not trying to be 'controversial', I am trying to feel better". And?. that was the end of that..I continue to submit samples to various drs., losing weight, sleepless nights, etc? This is totally unacceptable?. This suffering could be remedied with some research and acknowledgment of this real plague.REPORT COMMENTS
