I seen a show and said the bugs need the proper conditions to live on you which contribute factors to your skins php levels. So my question is do you think bathin in a water/vinegar solution will kill scabies? I mean ofcourse it will not instantly kill them but if you bath over weeks period with it they will eventually go away? No ? This is just a thought...

I am 100% sure this will not kill scabies, bleach will not kill scabies either, they will likely wreck your skin.

This will not work! Good thinking though, I have heard that scabies dwell on humans becasue of the PH levels in our skin, so maybe this could help people find better alternative treatments.

I know how you feel your at witts end and are willing to try anything! I have been there. I would suggest you visit the Naturasil website as they have the best scabies products to kill scabies. I used the Naturasil Family Pack and I was completely itch free of scabies within 48 hours. These products are amazing and the real scabies killer. Visit their Site:Scabies creams and soaps Click hereP.s - Tea tree or vinegar does not work, I know many people think because they may lower the PH levels in the skin it will work. But scabies will thrive on skin which does not have a protectant. Yes PH levels in your skin actually protect them from infection and things like scabies. I learned myself the hard way.

I believe that vinegar will work in killing surface scabies mite. If you use it with water it is a great exfoliant. I used to bathe in vinegar to shed my skin. You will see grey residue floating on the surface of the water. The problem with using vinegar to kill scabies is that it might not penetrate deep enough to kill the deeper ones and the eggs.

Vinegar will only take the itch away but will not kill any mites not even scabies mites, it will also ruin the PH levels in your skin which work as a barrier to protect your skin, so you would not only be ruining your skin but helping scabies thrive more. I do think though it would work well to fight the itch but not sure if its worth using for scabies.

I agree! Putting vinegar on your skin or bathing in it will likely do nothing but make your scabies worse. You should atleast check with a doctor before putting vinegar on your skin!

I've read with interest what has been said about vinegar not being effective. However, I have to disagree. I tried all kinds of medication and creams over a number of years and still had the dreaded lumps and bumps and associated itching even following treatment.
I read somewhere that vinegar was a possible solution in some cases so (out of sheer desperation) I tried it. I used roughly 4 parts water with 1 part vinegar in a sprak bottle (an old window cleaner spray thing) and sprayed myself every night before bed for about a month.
The result is that I have now been scabies free for 6 months and it didn't ruin my skin - I showered every morning and used body lotion to revitalize my skin.
It seems a ridiculously simple solution but in my case it worked (thank God!).

I tried tea tree oil and vinegar and they did not work at all! You probably had already gotten rid of your scabies prior to using it, the only thing vinegar on your skin will do is ruin your ph levels in your skin which fights off infections.
Not a good move!
