Re: what can i use in the office that DOES NOT stink?

[Guest guest]

Kihun: I think you have a super scabies mite, sarcoptic mite, just like me. it appears that the areas that I FREQUENT, are the areas most infected. Hydrogen Peroxide is very good. and it's cheap. the mites don't like it. can you use lemon scented raid? rita says that the ingredients in it are very strong and it seems to work pretty good for me. still, when you can, use the 91% alcohol in a spray bottle. I am not sure if the windex works well enough for my mites.

Can anyone recommend a spray that I can use in the office that DOES NOT stink or at least has a mild fragrance?Unfortunately, I work in a room with 12 other people. No cubes or offices. Fortunately, I'm the only one that use the table where I'm at. Other share tables and sit right next to each other. I can just wait it out until everyone leaves for the day and spray my area.B/c this is an enclosed room, I can't use things that smell like Windex or Isopropyl Alcohol based mix.I think 3% hydrogen peroxide/witch hazel does not smell too much but do you know whether this mix is effective as a contact killer?I've already tried bifithren, nylar, and even beta cyfluthrin (had to come to the office very late on several occasions to apply these w/ a sprayer). They do not seem to work! What is it that I have!Thanks.kihun

I don't think I have scabies or sarcoptic mites if I'm reading the

symptoms correctly. I have no red legions, no welts, no burrows or

tunnels under skin. I do have tiny tiny red spots where whatever bit

me is. They are not inflamed, not raised... however I do get some

bites on my calf that get a little bit bumpy. Other areas of the

body, they are just tiny red dots. My symptoms are not itchiness...

i get the sharp pin pricks, which I consider worse! If I have

scabies, I'm better off seeing a dermotologist, right? I have not

been to a doctor yet.

I don't think I have bird mites b/c I've never seen anything that

resemble a period. I do find some tiny white lint fabric looking

things or tiny black specks. These things are tiny! I'm still

waiting for the 100x pocket microscope to come in so I'll know more

when I get it. I've seen the lint balls on trly's website... fiber

mites??? what the heck are they? Black specks, I have no clue... I

can not make out what they are.

If your office does not have carpeting, or has a thin carpet, I would

recommend epsom salt solution (2 cups epsom salt dissolved in 1 pint

of hot water, then put in a garden sprayer and spray your work area).

Be careful not to get any epsom salt spray on your plastic floormat,

the wires under your desk, or your computer, because it dries and

looks like white broken glass, a real mess. I did this a few times in

my office and it helped a lot with reducing the bugs in the carpet.

Then I switched to Cedarcide and that worked about as well as the

epsom salt, but didn't make a mess. Also, I used to vacuum my work

space once a week -- I would come in early Sunday mornings to clean.

Ki,

search postings for " Dustmite " and you will find where I have

described how I use that with an IGR. I spray before a long weekend

(careful not to spray on dark furniture or it will leave a powdery

spot) and the smell is gone by the next week.

I keep harping on the Concentrated Orange Plus because it's so multi-

purpose effective & so cheap. Takes very little for kill & the

residual effect's lasted more than a month here. Maybe half a capful

in a gallon of hot water. Sprayed my upholstered office chair with it

& haven't noticed any discoloration or any mites since. I use it on

walls, ceilings, floors, countertops, my computer & even add it to my

bathwater. Very faint orange smell dissipates quickly & I find it

pleasant.

http://www.ecos.com/pages/orange.html

The one at the top right of the page - the brand is Ecos - with the

earth friendly logo on the bottle. Available at Ace Hardware & health

food stores or through the website. They make another orange cleaner,

Concentrated Orange Plus complete, but I haven't tried it yet.

Worth a shot. Best wishes, Sue

To Khunrc: next time you see tiny black specks try to lift them with

clear scotch tape and keep until you get your microscope. That is how I

was able to see the black specs were mites. Make sure they are stuck

tight in the tape or you could put tape on both sides and still see them

thru the microscope.

Thanks so much for your recommendation, Bessie! I'd never heard of

that but found their website with a wealth of instructions to use:

http://www.tkoorange.com/index.html

Says it will take away odors including skunk stink!

Under Agricultural Uses they even tell how to spray poultry.

Where do you buy it? What do you use if for? Best wishes, Sue

nope, no fuzzy balls for me, or black specs. my mites can barely be seen with 60x magnification. mine are canine mites, i think. not sure. yes, lots of pin prick effing hurting bites and sometimes i will see the red spot, but no tunnels for me either. this is a very bad case of mange mite, i think. hi frito... will the orange oil work for my mites? i'm tired of buying so much stuff and nothing kills mine, except bleach and raid.

Hi Kihun, trying to guess what you have is a hard way to go. You

should go to a Dr to have them rule out whatever they can or can't or

at least tell you what they think. Ask for skin scrapings at the

least. And you should try to see if whatever they prescribe helps you

or not. Some people are helped by Dr's, some are not. Mine at least

tried to help. I always thought the black specs were more mature

mites.

Thank you for harping -- I don't recall your prior posts on this

product. I can't keep up with the posts anymore, only read the first

line of each post usually. I'll give it a try, love the smell of

orange peels.

Thank you myrtle, Sue and others.

I think I'll try epsom salt tonight (since it doesn't smell) and

then go back on Friday evening and use Orange Plus. I'm optimistic

about it since it worked so well for you Sue. The office around my

desk/chair is worse than my cars and condo. I've been dreading

going to the office b/c of this.

Ki

I am guessing this is not your home office but your work office!?

Just a thought, the epsome salt will dry white on the carpet and will

be very noticeable....as well as hard to get out of the carpet....if

this is your home office thats not an issue....just thought I would

mention it though.....The orange guard sounds good though

Z, thanks for the heads up! The workplace is a corporate workplace

and has dark gray carpet so I'm sure epsom salt would've been very

noticeable.

I found a local health food store that carries Earth Friendly (ECOS)

Concentrated Orange Plus cleaner so I'll pick that up tonight. I

wonder what the ppl in the room will think tomorrow. I'll just play

dumb

The other day, I stuck my laptop bag in the car while heat treating.

I had menthol crystals in it and of course they all vaporized. At

work yesterday, my co-worker says, " why does it smell like Ben Gay in

here? " I put the laptop bag in a plastic bag for the rest of the day

^^;

Kihun -- Are you sure your office chair is not infested? I had to

dump two office chairs (and secretly replace them) because they got

hopelessly infested. The first one I dumped was cloth, the second one

was leather, but the mites crawled into the seams of the leather and

infested the cushion, which was filled with cotton I think. My

current chair is vinyl with a hard foam seat cushion, very

uncomfortable, but it hasn't gotten infested. I keep a sheet of the

thickest painters plastic on the seat and I spray the entire chair

with Cedarcide every couple of weeks now.

Myrtle, my chair and the empty chair next to me are definitely

infested. I've thought of switching them out but my conscience

woulnd't let me do that as I don't want other ppl sitting on them.

I suppose I can somehow make the chairs useless and the janitors

would dump them? I was thinking of spilling paint or something all

over the fabric and of course pretend to not having anything to do

with it. Any ideas?

It is almost impossible to decontaminate a fabric chair that you use daily. Get a leather or plastic one and spray with windex daily. Also, use a high foot rest as to avoid putting your feet on the floor. Mites quickly crawl up your legs and onto your chair again. Floors in the workplace are hard to decontaminate discreetly.

If you can get rid of one of the chairs without anyone noticing, you

could dismantle it when no one is looking, then put the pieces in

garbage bags and throw it away in pieces. Do you have any

surveillance cameras at work? If not, you could perhaps do it very

early on a Sunday morning, or stay late and do it. If someone asks

what happened to the extra chair, you could just shrug and act dumb,

like maybe someone borrowed it. For the remaining chair, maybe you

can soak it with the epsom salt solution, and then cover it with a

piece of plastic. To be blunt, the heat and humidity from your rear

end is going to cause constant problems with your chair. If anyone

asks about the plastic, you can say that you've developed an allergy

and hypersensitivity to mites (you can tell them dust mites, since

most people have heard of dust mite allergies), and that there seem to

be some mites in your chair.
