I heard alot of talk about tea tree oil killing scabies, but then i heard it is a lie. Does anyone know if pure lavendar oil kills scabies? It is very strong stuff

No, im fairly sure lavendar will just relax you and calm your nerves and possibly help cure minor skin problems. It is not a cure for scabies nor will ever be.

Lol. Maybe if you buy thousands of dollars of it and sit is it for 12 hours. jk. That tea tree oil and lavendar is pretty powerful stuff. The tea tree oil smell smells like gas. I would be suprised if enough tea tree oil would kill them if done properly.I have read studies in australia that claim it does infact kill them at a higher rate then permethrin, but their was no actual data on the the protocol treatment was.

I really do not think either of them will kill of scabies, they mite kill off any straglers that have gotten on you, but they certainly will not kill a scabies infection which is in more then one spot and they may not be present or you can not feel them. It certainly is good to use after post scabies put about 8-10 drops in a hot bath each day. This will keep them from wanting to live on your skin. Also anything over 10 drops of tea tree oil in a bath mite burn , so start with about 8 drops.

I tried everything under the sun. It was the longest 6 months ever. I then discovered DE (diatomaceous earth) its a powder that killed them. A gift of nature that you can use over and over. And unlike chemicals that these little devils can grow immune they can't with this cause it is not a chemical just a simple mineral that will destroy them with several applications. I just add water to the powder and paint it on. Google it!
Good Luck

Lavendar will not kill scabies, tea tree oil probably can if you apply 10 drops in a bath and bath twice a day then applying undiluted oil on before bed. You will need a ton of this stuff though and it will likely mess up your lungs in the process. And if you have thick skin I suggest using this alongside another scabies treatment it will help bring your skin down to its original layer of skin.

Not sure about lavender, but a warm BORAX AND HYDROGEN PEROXIDE SOAK will kill off scabies in a hurry. I was dealing with this problem for 4 months and was so ready to give up when I read about these baths in borax. Did this for about 1 week, completely gone! No more itching, red blotches are just about gone. This one really works. Google borax for scabies! Works great and doesn't cost a lot of $$$$$$.

Lavendar will not kill scabies but I do know it is a bath oil that is meant to relax and calm your nerves, I would suggest finding a good combination of tea tree oil and lavendar oil for a really good bath to stop the itching and help you get sleep. You can only put in about 8drops of regular tea tree oil into a bath, anymore and you wont even be able to sit in the water as your skin will be in pain. This stuff will help you not get reinfested and help heal your skin and give your mind some peace so you can get some sleep. Remember though it is good for your skin but is far from a scabies cure.

Neither of them will kill scabies! Tea tree oil is an antifungal oil which is good for infections but not a scabies infection as it is a mite. You want to use products that contain sulfur. You can get some scabies creams and soaps here. I got my treatment from there and my scabies were gone within a few days. I was left with dry skin for a week or so but atleast I no longer itched and showed scabies signs. I am not sure though you may still want to use the tea tree oil on areas with rashes as it may help them go away or prevent spreading, but it will not kill scabies.

Lavendar oil on its own will not kill scabies just like tea tree oil. I think lavendar is to relax you and tea tree oil is a antiseptic oil used for cuts and stuff to prevent infection. Stick with the sulfur soaps and creams and if you need to buy something else get lots of epsom salts. The combination of the 3 will kill any scabies infection no matter how advanced or wide spread across your body.
