Do mites make fuzz balls?

[Guest guest]

Last fall when I got out my winter clothes was when I first started feeling

things.

Mostly like smething crawling on me and then the pricks.

I found all kinds of hole in these clothes and some would have balls in the

threads.

I rfixed up one bedroom for me since I was having the rectal tumor removed.

One day just out of the blue these black fuzz balls just appear.

I had two Mattress pads and then the sheet.

I had not taken the plastic off that it was wrapped in from the store. I

washed and used a fabric steamer just a conair type and would do all tje bbed

yand sheets ever weekend. Keep in mind I was cluless as to hsbinh miyrd. Thrdr

would be in the seams of the plastic and many tims I would walk down our hallway

and have dozens on my robe.

I mentioned fuzz balls to on of the people at Cedarside and they said rat mites

did this.

These look like the normal balls you get from wear but these are prickly. I

would boil some clothes and even if it killed them the balls just got harder.

So does anyone know if these are from rat mites?

The ones appearing now are like someone stepped on it and flattened it out.

I would like to think they are clumping up to die.

Sorry for spelling mistakes but I can't see good.

I really wish I knew the answer to that Sandy. The fuzz balls have been mentioned by other people too that I've known over the years. I don't know if mites make any of this debris. It is a great unknown. Not sure anyone knows.
