My Mother works in a store, and they have
had tiny red bugs coming out of their
freight. They sound like new chiggers.
Now my mother and my father are ate up in
these tiny bites. They have tried
rubbing alchohol, bleach, calimine lotion,
nearly every over-the-counter itch releif
lotion, Pet shampoos with sulfer in them,
and just about everything you can think
of. The bites won't go away. They don't
know if it is chiggers, but they've
cleaned the house throughout, and changed
the sheets and everything, but they are
still getting new bites. And my mother
feels like at times, something's crawling
on her, but there's nothing visible.
Please help.
Thanks.

Have your parents been to a dermatologist?
I use meat tenderizer on bug bites and
stings. The meat tenderizer has enzymes in
it and the enzymes neutralize the toxin in
the bite. This works on bee stings and
mosquito bites. It is inexpensive. Perhaps
they could give it a try. Just make a
paste with the meat tenderizer and water.
Dab the paste on the bite. It may burn a
bit. Leave it there. Eventually it will
flake off the site.
