The ingredient "Permethrin" has been shown to be effective in killing bed bugs, yes. I haven't personally experimented yet but I am tonight. Will post results!
No! It kills the person!
Yes, DEET spray will kill scabies. DEET spray can be purchased at most retail store such as Walmart and pharmacy's such as CVS.
Yes Get the Rand C spray it works for head and body lice.
No, they are under the skin, but there are dermicidal creams that contain a percentage of pesticide that are effective. The bedding area must be addressed as well.
Hydrogen peroxide is not recommended for treating scabies because it is not proven to be effective against the mites that cause scabies. It is best to consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment of scabies.
No it doesnt. We used to have vast amounts of scabies all over our bodies and in places i will not mention. Derbac will kill them. Derbac can be found in your local chemist or convenience store.
1 to 2 weeks it would seem for most people. Provided you do not get reinfected. It is highly recommeded that bedding and clothing be BOILED during your ivermectin treatment.
No
For laundry when dealing with scabies, it is recommended to use hot water and a regular laundry detergent. Make sure to wash all bedding, towels, and clothing worn in the past few days in hot water to kill any mites. Avoid using specialized scabies treatments on laundry, as they may not be effective or necessary.
No
Yes
Flea bombs will not eliminate scabies from you home. The reason is that the insecticide percentage is far too low in these products to be effective even with a direct spay onto skin or bedding. The present standard is a combination of oral anti scabies medication in two doses with one permethrine topical application. Many patients follow with a second topical application as this is not significantly expensive or difficult. All clothing and bedding has to be dried at greater than 122F. Regards, Hrichardson md facep
