Fun fact, there is almost a hundred percent chance that Demodex mites live on the skin of your head and face at this very moment.
The burrow into our follicles and live on the oils we excrete. They come out at night to mate. On our faces.
They are microscopic and mostly harmless though.
I've been dealing with dry eye and they've gone a little crazy on my eyes. My eye doctor actually had to give me eye drops to clear them up a bit
The little crusties you get when you sleep. Got so bad that I couldn't open my eyes in the morning
Since taking eye drops to clear out the demodex and doing a bunch of eye hygiene, I now have almost no crusties in the morning
Who knew demo jizz was so problematic
You had to say mostly
I found this fact particularly fun. thanks for sending me down a lil rabbit hole.
Wrong hole, buddy
