A member asked:
I have a tanning bed in my home if i open up the bed and let the light shine on the floor in that room will help to kill scabies?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't need to: If they are on the floor & not in contact with the environment where they must be to live (human skin), they will die off rather quickly.
