Tea tree oil: Demodex mites are usually prevalent in areas where there are oily sebaceous glands like the face, scalp and eyelids--not so much the nose, i believe. At any rate tea tree oil is a good place to start. You might be able to get tea tree oil shampoo at your local GNC or whole foods. I do a weekly lid scrub for my patients with a strong 50% mixture in clinic for three weeks with nightly ointment
