Hello Grizz. I hope this old post still stands true and you are still mite free. I have this hell plague right now and would not wish this on hitler!!! Only cause he's dead and do not wish to waste a wish...lol I don't mean that but these mites are turning me into a very anger person. I have a question while await to receive my DE. How does the DE work on the mites buried in my skin. They are nicely protected under my once radiant skin? Do they surface? How often? Anyway thank you so much for your knowledge and for cure zone! I need sleep so bad. Thank you Gnome23
