No: No, no one knows the cause of morgellons. Without knowing type of bacteria, how one can choose antibiotics?

Psychiatric basis: Having seen several cases of this syndrome, the Mayo clinic has recently published a case series regarding Morgellon's, concluding that an infectious cause is not there. In many cases, patients with this condition are very, very resistant to even consider a psychiatric cause for this awful affliction of perceiving worms are coming out of the pores of their skin.
