  • Go to the top of the screen. On the right hand side, you will see a "bell" icon. Click on it. This is where all your past entries are stored - you can find it there.


    Or, just Google for entomologists in your area.


    Or contact your local Agricultural Extension, they will be able to help you too.

    Your local extension could help.

    I would try there.


    I have had a lawn/turf professor from the large university answer my turf questions.

    A great resource that I have used and highly recommend .....is your local Cooperative extension. These offices are manned by a wonderful team of master gardeners that know your local situation quite well. There's also email ( submit a photo) Q&A resources that have helped my concerns and questions many times. Consider googling up your local extensions office.

    Most common mite infesting humans is scabies..... you will need to see a doctor, and everyone in the house and who you've been in contact with will need to be treated..... https://www.aad.org/public/diseases/contagious-skin-diseases/scabies#treatment a dermatologist or even a family doctor should be able to help.

    The house and car will have to be repeatedly treated and all bedding, towels and clothing will need to be cleaned in hot water and I like to use borax in the wash.

    If you are around livestock, you may have contracted it from horses.
