..sensations...allergies...mites..Acarology

[Guest guest]

Hi Aggi - I am sending you some emails from acarologists studying mites - people who may be interested in us humans - I don't have much luck in getting anyone to listen - by chance, maybe you could. A professional once told me never to start a conversation about our problems with the word "bird mites" - but rather give the symptoms only - they have an automatic block in their brain that says birdmite people = delusional

I need reconfirmation of identied Dermatophagoides sp. and Blomia sp.

Dear Dr. Prasad

I would be happy to identify your specimens. We have been

working on the systematics of the dust mites for some time and have substantial

experience with their identification.

All the best! - Barry

So many mites, so little time!

Doris, I have been in contact with ANIMAL PLANET !Last year they said they would be interested in discussing my case in depth, but when i gave my contact details never heard of them again. Last week i sent out an email to them, asking if they where still interested and they replied almost straight away saying that they have one bird mite case now and probably do not need a 2nd one. Then this woman told me that if was still having problems, there must still be a nest or something around and that i should keep looking for the source. Also, tenting the house would help... well, you probably can imagine how dumbfounded i was. All i do know after 2 years dealing with this crap is the fact that NOBODY WANTS TO KNOW THE THRUTH. It is just so much easier to call us insane or delusional and trust the oh so honoured scientiest who do not have a clue about it ! > >Â > >>How often do you get bit/feel the crawling sensations? > >>> >>> > > Â >
