Man, I'm glad youre on the mend now! And thank you for sharing all about this because it's a problem i haven't encountered yet and wouldve been woefully unprepared for. This has shown me what to expect and how to go about treating it, so thank you!

Be careful not to let the Hotel find out that you have Scabies. Don't mention the name of the hotel in your videos in case someone here reports you. There is some nasty people about 👍.

Way to persevere through this experience Yeti! Looks like you have a new religion of insect an pest extermination to keep you busy for a awhile. Of all the ferocious things I've encountered here in Canada the only thing I fear are the little creepy crawly things I can't see. Stay safe brother!🤗

Omg don't use mayo not refrigerated, it can make you so sick you'd wish you was dead. Not worth the risk. God bless you

God bless you. Hope once this clears things are more peaceful for you.

Thanks for update Been worried bout you. Glad you are getting better. I don't blame you for going to hotel while healing.. I wonder if being submerged in a pool would help I outside still Massachusetts.. it has been cold and staying that way.. really looking forward to spring I believe your stuff in bins should be safe. The mites need a human body to live.. they can not live elsewhere I believe

Thank you for updating, I've been worrying about you.

I'm so happy to hear that the fellow viewers were able to do for you. I'm also really happy things are guttering better even though it's a slow process.

Oh my goodness, that's terrible! Not sure I'd even go back out to that same camping spot, I'd be freaked out they are still out there. God bless you. It's times like this. I wish I had money to help people. 😢

Don't go back to the old campsite! The area around will be infected. Throw all the stuff out and then go find another campsite. Have the new area also decontaminated by using what is working for you for at least 2 months. Be careful collecting firewood etc. Don't get reinfected. We have camped for years and it took 20 years to get our first dose on a very busy pilgrimage route in Spain. Stay away from busy campsites.

Have you tried sleeping in a hammock with an under quilt and a tarp? That’s what I used when I was homeless.

rest and you will be less sensitive to itching . I think your nerves are worse than the bugs rn if you have problems with it get help bc they can help

Oh so sorry for all you've been through. Geez..the misery!!! Glad your getting treatment. You look good in this video in a normal setting. Wishing you out of your tent asap!! God bless you! 🙏

Diatomaceous earth kills scabies bedbugs fleas, and it’s non-toxic.

Stay away from people.

Stay away from the shelters and learn wild eatables is the best thing you can do!

I finally realized there's a very huge chance for me to go homeless next year or even this one and I'm trying to prepare myself as much as I can cuz there's really no way I can stop it from happening. Thank you so much for this information.

Hang in there brother

the homelss are survivors, they know how to deal with condition that the rest of the world cant handle

my son is homless but he cant get anuwhere thanks to the corupt gov and the lies of the peopme who claim to help. it is tsrribly difficult to watch,i am on medicare and ss cant afford to pay for him, and because he was convicted of a felon 20 yrs ago, no one will hire him ..

Most hobos move with the seasons. Its really a smart thing to do.

Another small gift

A small gift

Hey brother! Fello hobo here! Ive been out here for 3 1/2 months now so im still pretty new to this and trying to figure it all out. I live in the midwest and it has been brutally cold here. Weve had several sub zero days. Just wanted to say that watching your channel does a lot for me. It really has been helping me through and i appreciate you having the fortitude to post at all and having the strength to be volnurable. Youve even got me considering doing the same. I know how that negative self talk be and I know that you probably get more that your share of crapitalist boot-licker comments and i just wanted to add to the pile of positivity for you! I hope you keep growing on TH-cam and I very much look forward to your uploads and just wanted to say thanks for what you do. I hope homelessness doesnt suck for you, brother! The cold wont last forever and youll conquor this bug problem like youve already conquored so many unfair obstacles in life. Keep being a king 👑

Hope your doing better. The past five days been brutal.. I hope your well and some of my hacks helped you.. it gonna be warmer this week. Above freezing during day and 28 at night. Spring be here before you know it

Can you get you a small wagon? The collapsible ones? I use one around the house, it's a life saver.

You and gypsy joey are my goto homeless youtube channels. You guys kind of have some common themes. Well spoken and very good at expressing the life homeless life among other things.

I used to have quite a bit of depression in my counselor got me to see a naturalist. He suggested for me to take Fish oil in 5HTP. Within a few days, I felt so much better. Without going into all of the science on how it works. I did find out that after a while. I didn't have to use the fish oil anymore. And I didn't like the fish burps anyways. And now I may have to use the 5 HTP maybe 1 week out of each year and sometimes I don't even have to use it at all during the year. And the Doctor did say that I could take up to 4 of the 5HTP. But I never needed more than 2 a day. But that's what worked for me.😊

This is NOT the end of your story. After a quad bypass and 3 strokes in 4 years. NO , it's not the end of my story at 57

psp+ pool cleaner is cheap, wash it in that

ivermectin permethrin and tsp pool cleaner its like acid - trash everything repeatedly, you are probly gonna need help seriously dude

listen to me - clean that stuff with tsp pool cleaner its all at walmart and hone depot - Not the safe kind unless its all they have - wash all that wipe it down and get some sleep

tsp pool cleaner if it gets too bad, watch ur eyes but it works

Pantry 's around don't give anything except food.

Good evening! I feel so bad for your tough times. Sending you love from- NewJersey ❤✨

Becoming home free and car free are the best investments I ever made. One can retire in 5 years. There's that much codependency on charging for sleep.

Delt with the same thing. This works. Make solution of equal parts Clorox Bleach, Water, Trisodium Phosphate (TSP), Clorox PH+ Swimming Pool Alcalinizer (not PH substitute). $10 total at the hardware store. This works and is safe. I know the misery. For your sake, I hope you hear this. You will be so thankful. 2-3 times, complete coverage.

Totally depression

Move to the tropic....is nice ❤ saludos from Puerto RICO ISLAND

Ivermectin is the best for worns or parasites inside your body .But for outsidee your body you need something different.But you did well getting rid of your the things that you were using.maybe changing to another place

Man's being bitten in his tent by bugs which he thinks might be mites or jiggers looks to be real cold it's winter time below freezing everything's dead, can mites and jiggers live in the winter time, don't you get them in the foliage? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, mites and chiggers (often spelled jiggers colloquially, though different from the sand fleas called chigoe fleas) are typically associated with warmer weather and foliage. However, some insects and arachnids can survive in winter under certain conditions. Here’s a breakdown: Mites in Winter Can Mites Survive Freezing Temperatures? Yes, certain types of mites can survive in winter. For example: House dust mites can thrive indoors regardless of outdoor temperatures. Rodent mites may infest a home or tent if rodents are nearby for warmth. Bird mites could linger if birds nest in sheltered areas, even in winter. Cold Survival Mechanisms: Many mites go into a dormant state called diapause in freezing weather but may remain active indoors or in insulated areas like tents. Chiggers in Winter Chiggers and Cold Weather: Chiggers (larval stage of Trombiculidae mites) cannot survive freezing temperatures in their active state. They thrive in warm, moist environments, such as grassy or wooded areas, and go dormant during cold seasons. If it’s below freezing, it’s highly unlikely chiggers are biting him unless he brought infested gear or clothing into his tent from a prior warm-weather location. Possible Sources in Winter: Chiggers are typically not active in winter. If bites occurred earlier in warm weather, the itching could persist for days or weeks. Other Possible Culprits Given it’s winter and below freezing, here are a few alternative explanations for bug bites: Fleas: Fleas can survive cold weather if carried by animals (e.g., rodents, pets) into warm spaces like a tent. Rodent or Bird Mites: Rodents seeking warmth in winter could carry rodent mites, which may bite humans when their primary host is unavailable. Bed Bugs: If the tent or bedding was previously exposed to an infestation, bed bugs could be biting him. They thrive in indoor or sheltered areas, even in winter. Psychological or Environmental Irritation: Sometimes, feelings of crawling or biting could stem from environmental factors like dryness or psychological stress rather than actual bugs. Suggestions for Addressing the Problem Inspect the Tent and Gear: Check for signs of insects or mites in the bedding, clothing, or tent seams. Clean and Treat Gear: Wash bedding and clothes in hot water (above 130°F / 54°C) to kill mites or bed bugs. Use a vacuum or lint roller to clean the inside of the tent. Apply a Safe Insecticide: Use products like permethrin spray (safe for fabrics) to treat the tent and bedding. Rule Out Rodent Issues: Look for droppings or signs of rodents near the tent, as they could be carrying mites or fleas. Skin Relief: Apply anti-itch creams or lotions (e.g., hydrocortisone, calamine lotion) for relief. Oral antihistamines (e.g., Benadryl) may help reduce itching and swelling. Final Thoughts While mites and chiggers are highly unlikely to be active in freezing winter conditions, rodent mites, bed bugs, or fleas may be more plausible culprits. It’s also worth checking for environmental irritants like dust or fibers in his gear. If the bites persist or worsen, consulting a doctor or pest control expert might be necessary to identify and treat the source. Let me know if you'd like more targeted advice! You said: He was given ivermectom ChatGPT said: ChatGPT If he was given ivermectin, it’s likely that the healthcare provider suspects a parasitic infestation, such as mites (like scabies) or other parasitic insects that can bite or burrow into the skin. Here’s some information to help clarify the situation and whether ivermectin is the appropriate treatment: Why Ivermectin? Ivermectin is an antiparasitic medication often prescribed for: Scabies: Caused by Sarcoptes scabiei mites, which burrow into the skin and cause intense itching. Scabies can persist even in winter because it’s transmitted through close contact, clothing, or bedding. Other Mites: Like bird or rodent mites, which can bite humans if their primary host is unavailable. Lice or Other Parasites: Though less common, ivermectin is sometimes used for lice infestations when topical treatments fail. Unexplained Bites or Itching: Ivermectin may be given as a precaution if parasitic involvement is suspected but not confirmed. Can Scabies or Mites Be Active in Winter? Yes, especially if: The mites are transferred indoors via bedding, clothing, or contact with an infected person or animal. Rodent mites or bird mites are present in his tent, as rodents and birds often shelter in warm spaces during winter. How Ivermectin Works Kills Parasites: Ivermectin paralyzes and kills mites, lice, or other parasitic insects by interfering with their nervous systems. One or Two Doses: Usually given as a single oral dose (based on body weight) or repeated after 1-2 weeks if the infestation persists. In severe cases, multiple doses may be needed. Additional Measures: It’s often combined with topical treatments (e.g., permethrin cream) for scabies or lice to ensure all mites/parasites are eliminated. What He Should Do While on Ivermectin Wash Bedding and Clothes: Wash all bedding, clothing, and fabric in hot water (above 130°F / 54°C) and dry on high heat. This kills mites, eggs, and other parasites that may survive on fabrics. Vacuum the Tent or Area: Clean and vacuum the living space thoroughly to remove any remaining mites or bugs. Avoid Close Contact: To prevent reinfestation or spreading, he should avoid sharing bedding or clothing with others until the issue is resolved. Monitor Symptoms: If itching worsens or new symptoms like a rash or lesions appear, it may indicate a secondary infection or that the mites aren’t fully eradicated. Other Possible Causes for Bites If he continues to have issues despite treatment with ivermectin, consider: Bed Bugs: Not affected by ivermectin and require specific pest control measures. Allergic Reactions: Itching or bites could be a reaction to environmental factors or irritants. Fleas: If animals (like rodents) are present, fleas could be biting him. Follow-Up Effectiveness of Ivermectin: It usually works within a week, though itching may persist as dead mites or eggs are cleared from the skin. If symptoms don’t improve after 2 weeks, he should follow up with his healthcare provider to reassess the situation or consider alternative treatments.

If it's chiggers you've got to get away from them. Your camp might be in them or you may walk through them going to and from camp, or the toilet. You must move. I cant be sure if it's biting or itching that's getting to you. relief for me with chiggers after getting away is from Benedryl tablets (diphenhydramine) use the store brand generic. To stop the biting get dryers sheets (Bounce with softener) rub them on your kit and clothes, rip them in half put them in your sleves and socks cap etc. The chiggers and ticks hate them. I don't get to WIFI often. Hope to hear good things when I check back in. Your'e a real inspiration. Calamine lotion help too, don't scratch. I'm in the south east , the bitter cold here is awful having trouble keeping fingers, toes and nose warm.

i wanna be just like you when i grow old and homeless

permethrin (available at Walmart) will definitely help.

Sending love from- NewJersey ❤❤

Stay safe bro I was homeless too 🙏

Sounds like you got bedbugs.

You should have a couple of wool blankets in case of extreme weather.

Headlice bedding spray kills bedbugs and mites! I love y'all kiddo 💓

Anyone who is experiencing chronic anxiety, depression or poor sleep should be supplementing with vitamin D3. Most people are chronically low on D3. Blood levels need to be between 40-80 if having symptoms. They will say 28 is *normal* but not if you are suffering. If you are too depressed or poor to get blood tested it's safe to take 10,000 units of vitamin D3 per day until you feel better. I had lifelong anxiety, depression and poor sleep until I learned about vitamin D3. After about a week of taking 10,000 units per day for about a week my sleep improved then a few days later my depression and anxiety lifted and has not returned. This was about 15 years ago. Now I do good on 4000 units per day.
