      Hi guys

      Not sure anyone’s reading these posts but hopefully it’s comforting or helpful to someone.

      I’m having better days with the kleen green and I’ve learned some things as well so I thought I would share.

      Days are a bit better now. The biting and crawling is less but still there.

      From what I’ve learned it’s basically a 3 week life cycle from hatching to adult. The crawling is the baby ones and the hard bites are the adults. Smaller bites are young teenage bugs basically.

      The idea with the kleen green is that you spray when you feel activity, it does kill them without a doubt but if they are under your skin like mine it makes it tricky because the eggs are laid under the skin (so gross). If you’re in the same position as me it’s harder.

      They move under the skin of my feet and the muscles move on their own it’s so creepy. But I think it’s getting better.

      If you feel them in your mouth gargling listenine is the best thing for them, they were biting in my eyes and in my ears and up my nose so I sprayed the fuckers with KG over and over and they seem to have given up on those places.

      The issue is still my feet. My left hand has completely cleared and my right one is massively improved. I’ve been having the buzzing feeling which I feel is them nesting. The KG works on most areas for this but doesn’t seem to shift it from a hotspot on my thumb. I put some colloidal silver on it yesterday which seemed to help so I’ll see what happens.

      I’m going to try Nustock next for my feet, I’ve read it works well for the feet.

      I’ve also been taking supplements. My diet was very poor before no fruit or veg so I’ve been eating better which is helping.your immune system needs to be on top form to fight.

      I’ve been taking colloidal silver. I’m not sure if it works and I’m scared of it so I’m not going to use it for much longer but I’ve also read it’s good for this kind of thing. Ive read that ivermectin helps but you can’t get it in the UK so I’ve ordered some offline from abroad but I’m going to only use it as a last resort because I’m scared of it.

      That’s all I have for now. I do believe we can beat this thing. Stay strong guys

      Little continuation with this. . .

      KG is made from papaya/pineapple and other fruit enzymes. Holland and Barrett sell papaya enzyme tablets, I’ve started taking those today. I’ll let you know how I get on.

      I’ve also started hoovering my feet. It sounds crazy. But aren’t all of us on this site a little crazy from these things by now.

      The issue is that they are so deep behind the muscles in my feet that treatments don’t reach them very well. Surely hoovering will bring them closer to the surface? Seems to have helped a little so far.

      Also I’ve ordered nustock I’ll let you know how I get on with it.

      Still waiting for the ivermectin.

        Hi there I see you’re in the UK. I’ve only just found this site ans a lot of the things are only in US. Any luck with what you’re trying from Holland amd barret ?

        Not much to be honest. Depends on how far along your issue is. . . Are they inside you or are you just getting bitten?

        If you’re just getting bitten kleen green is literally all you need.

        My issue is that they’re fully inside me like it’s horrible. High dose vitamin c pills and magnesium from Holland and Barrett are working a little bit. I’m also trying neem juice so I’ll let you know how that goes

        Hi thanks for your reply. Theyve burrowed into my scalp I literally do lice treatments on my hair constantly but I don’t think it’s doing anything. I moved out of my house on Monday for a break. But after reading this forum I’m scared I’ll infect my friends. I went to Holland and barrat bought the enzymes. So hard when mist things on the site are American. They’re in my nose too. I use a kice comb on my hair twice a day. I work long hours so exhausted with it all. My diets not good at the moment so I know I need to boost immune system. I’m leaving my house empty for 3 months but not sure that will work .

        Honestly don’t leave your house. It won’t work. I did it.

        Get the kleen green if can and spray your head when you get bitten. Every time. I take my kleen green to work with me and spray myself and it’s working.

        You feel so stupid doing it but I’m past caring. The papaya enzymes didn’t work for me. Try magnesium and vitamin c. Honestly I’ve gone from getting bitten 200+ times a day to maybe 20 a day. The kleen green works. My issue is that they are in my muscles so I’m trying to kill them off inside.

        I used to get them in my nose as well but I just sprayed the kleen green up my nose when I felt them and they aren’t there anymore.

        I personally haven’t infected anyone that I know but I think it depends from person to person.

        Honestly try the kleen green. Spray every time they bite or crawl.

        So moving out helped. I’m now completely clear thankfully. But staying out of my property for a whole 3 months. Hoping the winter and the vacant property will help clear the house. How long did you move out for ?

        Have you gone back to your property? Did you get rid of them from the property? I am thinking about leaving for a few months too and hoping they die off in my car and apartment.

        Hi sweetie,

        I never went back. I’m loving a much more normal life now though. I’d say 75% better. For me it’s been Kleen Green, reducing my sugar and eating healthily. It’s mainly been the kleen green.

        Hi Flgirl,
        I didn’t want to post a reply until I lived in house for a month. So yes all good. When I moved out I goy cleared. I left all house windows on vent. It got cold for 3 months. I’d lost all my furniture anyway so all of that was empty and no fabric. I have wooden floors
        Good news is yes it has worked in my house. I was very paranoid looking for them amd wondering. But yes I do believe moving out worked. I’ve spent 12k on treatments getting rid of everything. Sprays by professional company and paid for a heat treatment ( which did nothing). I was very lucky that I had friends to let me stay out if the house for 3 months buy yes for me it has worked.

        That is great to hear and I am happy that moving worked for you! I am 2 years into this mess and spent so much money and tried everything. I moved and bought all new stuff but kept my car, clothes, and a coffee maker, and everything is infested again. I am sure I am over $10k. I will probably leave the car and apartment for a few months and just travel. Hopefully, when I come back they are gone. Thanks!!

        If you soak your feet in 2 tbsp of borax in a pair of rubber boots with a quart water 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the night it will go away it’ll take 60 days. It’ll look like they’re gone in a week but it will take five more weeks and they’ll be gone and your feet will be free. They live on the floor. After a while your feet are not so tasty. And they give up. One big help is I pray to God that healer of Healers. The coconut oil 1 tbsp in 32 oz of warm water sets up a shield and they don’t like the skin anymore. I applied head to toe and leave it on as long as possible it washes off easily with one shampoo in your hair will look like you’re sixteen years of age. Right back to me anytime my email is doe 1769 at yahoo.com God bless you I’ve been free of these bugs for years and years.. I do run into them once in awhile in parks around certain trees in old trucks and of course and in my old belongings I have stored in storage area . and I if I run into them I immediately go to the shower take my clothes and put them in a wastepaper basket a half a cup of Arm & Hammer powdered version laundry soap and a gallon or two or three of water , powdered version only because it melts down goo and probably bugs,i let clothes soak for an hour or two and take a shower and put the coconut oil in a shampoo bottle 1 tbsp, and dump it over my head head to toe leave it on overnight or as long as possible and then wash off with one shampoo it stops the bug. Also works as a good spray 32 oz of water 1 tbsp coconut oil and 32 oz of water, sprayed on everything the coconut oil water makes them stick down in place. This was very helpful all crawling stopped in 2007 God bless you call if you need anything

      To kill them in their feet all of the posters 7 years ago used to soak them in two to three tablespoons of borax and about a quart of water inside of a rubber boot called the wellingtons from Kmart for $17 we would all put them on right after we got out of the shower and walk around in them doing our chores so we didn’t have to sit and soak our feet it always sucks all of the bugs out of your feet it takes almost 60 days of doing it because they get so deep in the face. My feet are fine now and I haven’t felt the bite of my foot in months. I do run into the bug once in awhile in parks on certain trees and an old trucks and some people’s houses. All these areas I stay away from Once I figure out there there. I don’t have to go far from the tree I just can’t go under the tree. If the park has them I stay out of the park. Usually it’s pretty much of a solitary area that they live in like by a tree or a bush. It’s hard to say but I usually don’t feel them anymore. If I do I apply Ted’s Ted’s mange cure which is one bottle of peroxide 16 oz 32 oz of water and a tablespoon of borax. This applied to Cuts or bites stops the itch within 3 minutes and sterilize the area so microbes don’t transfer. It is excellent I apply it and leave it on until the next shower on any bite I get from the bug. If you need any more information or any other help I’ll be glad to help email me a doe 1769 at yahoo.com . My name is Bill God Is A Healer pray to him hard he will help he is good and his Mercy endures forever
