The Demodex is a type of tiny, parasitic mite that lives in or near the hair follicles of mammals -- including humans. They are primarily found in the face: near the nose, eyelashes, and eyebrows; but they can occur elsewhere on the body.
Doesn't that make you feel itchy? Don't go trying to wash your eyelashes just yet. It's estimated that 500 to 1000 species of bacteria live in the human gut and a roughly similar amount on the skin. There's no scrubbing that off.
And with that bit of knowledge (that you can't un-know), I complete my four-part Freaky Friday collection.
Matilda, our resident Halloween-kitty, wishes you a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
