Yes, tea tree oil is thought to be effective in the treatment of scabies. Try adding a couple tablespoons to some vegetable oil and applying that to your skin... It is wise to still go to the doctor and have it looked at though!

Will mustard oil kill scabies?

Mustard oil is not a proven treatment for scabies. While it has some antifungal and antibacterial properties, it does not effectively kill the scabies mite, Sarcoptes scabiei, which causes the infestation. For treating scabies, medical treatments such as topical permethrin or oral ivermectin are recommended. Always consult a healthcare professional for appropriate diagnosis and treatment options.


Can i apply tea tree oil directly to nit eggs?

Applying tea tree oil directly to nit eggs (lice eggs) is not recommended, as it may not effectively kill the eggs and can potentially irritate the scalp or skin. While tea tree oil is known for its insecticidal properties and may help in treating lice infestations, it is best used in a diluted form or as part of a formulated lice treatment. For safety and effectiveness, consider consulting a healthcare professional or using treatments specifically designed for lice and nits.

How much tea tree oil do you use?

Tea Tree Oil should never be used pure. It can easily be mixed with most other house hold oils to form a weaker solution. I use Grape Seed Oil or Sunflower Seed Oil or Olive Oil. How strong mix you want depends on what you want to use it for or against. It has been shown in studies that solutions as low as 5% will effectively kill off Head Lice and Scabies. Some contradicting stories regarding this though. I have with success used 10% solution against scabies. Tea Tree Oil has got great anti fungal and antibacterial properties. It helps healing wounds and improves the scar tissue. For this, I would suggest 5% solution. I would probably start off with a 10% solution regarding fungal infections on feet though. This oil should not be taken orally or be used on very sensitive skin like ears, around eyes, around penis/scrotum/vagina. That might sting and it could be a rather unpleasant experience, especially around eyes.
