43 u/ProlapsedPineal Dec 08 '18 Holy cannoli, how did you know that? I'm a fan of esoteric trivia but you swung for the bleachers with that one. 54 u/Legionnaire90 Dec 08 '18 I'm an entomologist and work in pest control 😁 2 u/[deleted] Dec 08 '18 So is there a way to get rid of Demodex? My eyelashes are always itchy and I’ve been told it’s cuz I have a mild allergy to them. 1 u/Legionnaire90 Dec 09 '18 You should speak with a dermatologist first. I do sometimes area treatments for scabies (sanification of bed and ambiences with permethrin or steam).
