I've thought of that...I know it works for lice, etc... The problem with these mites is that they take a looooong time to kill... (eggs take 15-20 days to hatch and come out of the skin, if I remember correctly). Meaning, a LONG time of greasy hair. I tried it for 3 days, with a diaper rash creme that really worked, but by the third day, my hair looked really nasty.

Maybe I'll alternate the Ponds with a few other things. The apple cider seems to work, and so does spraying my scalp down with a special alchohol/tea tree oil cleaner I have (which also kills lice), but that strips my hair of all oils. So maybe if I add the Ponds in there... :) What a crazy summer it's going to be.

I hope the shampoo from demodex works... It's expensive, but it would be so nice if there was something simple like it that would help. We're in the middle of a move, and are building our new place, so I'm going to be "camping" all summer long (with five children) while our new place gets finished up...so any crazy scalp protocols are going to be REALLY hard to do...
