“What are these?” is all this woman asks in her submission to us. She sends in multiple pictures, of which we have included only a few, of what appears to be white, lint- and hair-like matter all around what we assume to be her home.

The reason we left out some of our reader’s photos is because either they showed the same things we can see in the photos we did include, they were not clear in what they were trying to show us, or they showed our reader’s face (so we left them out to protect her privacy). Now, taking into account that one of the photos was of her face, as well as the fact that one of the photos (displayed below) is of our reader’s hair, this situation becomes potentially medical. We do assume this on the basis that reader has reported experiencing any symptoms or having health issues/concerns, but in any situation in which organisms are found in or on our readers’ bodies, we deem the situation medical. This is because, as we are not medical professionals, we cannot risk making an identification of such creatures, which might then be used as a diagnosis.

So, while we cannot identify the organisms, what we can do is suggest some places our reader can go to find a professional who can confidently identify and potentially treat these organisms. Normally, going to one’s doctor is the best way to go about any medical issue, but generally speaking, GPs and ER doctors do not receive training in parasitology, and it is a parasite specialist that one will want to consult when dealing with organisms affecting one’s health. For that reason, what we can recommend is that our reader do one or more of the following:

1) Search for a medical parasitologist in her area using this directory of medical parasitology consultants: https://www.astmh.org/for-astmh-members/clinical-consultants-directory.
2) Search for a local parasitologist by doing aGoogle search for “medical parasitologist (name of the closest big city)” or “tropical medicine specialist (name of the closest big city)”.
3) Get in touch with Dr. Omar Amin at theParasitology Center at https://www.parasitetesting.com.

To conclude, we cannot tell our reader what it is she asks us to identify, as her situation is potentially medical in nature. Nonetheless, we hope that this article proves helpful to our reader and that she gets the answers she wants sooner rather than later. We wish her the best!

  1. I am in Tennessee and I am going through the exact same thing. I am now bald headed after having hair to my rear. I have tried everything. I am now treating myself for parasites. Not bc I thought I had em but that’s the only thing helping my hair to grow back I feel. I have even had flies/gnats come from my Scappoose. I’ve seen moths too. My children watched the flies come straight out of my head where I get a small black dot under scalp then as my scalp gets tight I will feel a small fluttering of air and bam there’s another. I feel as if that big balloon crop dusted the entire U.S. bit of course everyone thinks I’m crazy. But I’m definitely baldheaded!!! So far mixing Epsom salt, apple cider vinegar, and baking soda in with my shampoo is all that’s working ri give me some relief. Ice also this last week started apple cider vinegar pills and turmeric and curcumin. Please let me know if anyone figure out what’s wrong with us.

  2. I have lost around 80% of my hair. I am female and had very long, thick, silky, shiny hair. I now look like my hair caught on fire. It’s straggly, thin, sparse & around 22″ shorter. It’s gone!
    This happened over years and I could not identify the cause.

    Last month, I started noticing my hair falling out at an even faster rate. I also kept feeling like bugs were crawling on my head and in my ears. I did an online search for “lice” because I thought maybe I somehow got lice. After inspecting my hair, I noticed nothing. Then one day while holding my cell phone my camera was accidentally turned on and I had also pressed “macro mode” which id never used. There was a light on as well. I was spilling down at the time and removed the towel from my hair after showering and while phone in hand I accidentally got a glimpse through the screen at my hair and it stopped me in my tracks. I was able to see my hair very close up with a light on it was very clear. There were
    TONS AND TONS OF little white squirly worms in my hair! There was also lots of debris as well which kinda looked like a mix of chronic dandruff ( which I never had ) sone chunks of random unknown yellow or whitish stuff and some orange stuff like a coating on my hair! When I moved my hands through my hair debris would fly through the air like snow. There were and still is strands of hair that are a clear tube. I don’t know what they really are. My hair also moves in its own it jumps around and looks to be vibrating. The worms are alive, they try to hide from the light when I shine it on my hair. The worms to the naked eye look like clear lint. Tiny, tiny, strands of lint most clear or white. Those are what move.

    I’ve tried soaking my hair in straight vinegar and leaving it on overnight. I’ve tried Listerine, same procedure. I’ve tried using a lice kit. Nothing. I’ve used coconut oil drenching my hair and sleeping with it in. I’ve also tried permathen prescription scabies treatment UNDILUTED in hair for as long as I could stand until my scalp was burning and felt like crawling. None of which worked. I still use one of these a day because it clears a lot out but a few hours later my hair is full of them and full of debris. I’m sure this is the cause of my hair loss. My scalp looks normal from what I can see although my hair follicles are now very sparsely spaced. You can see my scalp through my hair.

    Does anyone know what this is? I thought morgellons because I’m chronically fatigued and gave does on my face. But I don’t see “threads” or fiber coming out of my skin.
    I’m not going to bother seeing a Dr. Because I know they are not educated about parasites in the US and their ignorance will only cause them to add “delusional” to my health file.

    I believe I have something which is a man made or man created bioweapon. Germ warfare. Either to depopulate, torture, or experiment. I believe it’s likely in our air from chemtrails or something released in our air.
    I also believe nothing common kills this.
    I also think the radioactive microwaves emitted through 5G and other methods has caused a weakening of our immune systems making us more susceptible to pathogens, bacteria, fungus, viruses & toxins attacking our systems. I think 5G radiation is causing my hair to vibrate. and finally, I believe we are slowly being cooked alive from the inside out with the new 5g technology / radiofrequency by slowly adjusting….unfortunately most people have been brainwashed into thinking life is all ducks and bunnies and our government is their friend and the news is true and there’s only quacks and conspiracy theorists who think this way.

    I’m in California. Anyone out there wanting to research this stuff let me know I’m here and I’m in SoCal. Or if there’s a Dr. Who uses his own brain to conduct research about this or maybe you already know what this is. I can only speak hypothetically or guess about what it is.

    1. Hi Holly, wow you are describing to the T exactly what I have. Here is my number can you call me please 559-939-8355. Thank you

  3. I have been fighting this very same thing for over 6 months now it is driving me crazy.. Every time i think I ts gone it comes back in full force over night .. I pulled out 2 separate things from inside my nose that i felt tickling n biting me.. Felt like they come frm my sinuses that looks like white fuzz.. under my microscope app they looked like a clump of white hair with black species in it and a few black hairs that are definitely not nose hair cause i have none at all from chasing what looks like tiny miles or something that attaches n moves around inside my nose n understand my skin which i thought was demodex.. Any updated info on diagnosis or cute for the lint looking things?

    1. Fuckin A.. I swear Reading you makes me upset and happy at the same Time.
      I’m from Canada, Quebec province to be more precise.
      I have been struggling with this for The last last year.
      But honestly ,bthis has been going on for more than that. It started very slowly. So I only realize now, looking back, that those were the first symptoms that are now driving me crazy!.
      So it goes like this;
      I’ll have to call « DIDO» with everything you say about your hair. I’ve been experimenting the same goddamn thing.
      That can not be just a coincidence.
      I mean, it’s too precise to just be something that happens!!!
      I have been reading about this on other sites as well. we’re more and more, and the exact symptoms…NOT SIMILAR ONES!!!
      COLY/PASTE like symptoms, makes me realize that we’re all talking about the same thing.
      I don’t know if some of y’all are from Canada ?
      It actually really doesn’t matter where you’re from. If you’re feeling the same way I’m feeling about all of this… you and I are actually coming from the same f****** damn place !!!
      I’ve been having the nose thing also.
      I have been having these scars on my body mostly on my arms and on my upper back ,my face also.

      I feel like there’s something ,like …I will just scratch, because I feel something itching… Like if some piece of sand would be stuck in my skin. I then it starts bleeding without ever stopping
      . It bleeds like not normally.!!!

      Then I’ll get a scar !!! SCAR that never leaves!!!
      It makes, an almost, perfect circle with flaky skin all around it. It will stay red forever!!!
      It’s been a year, and I still have them.
      My body’s being scarred. It’s getting worse and worse actually.

      Today topped it all… The skin around my fingers nails is not only flaking…. More like a snake!!! I am shedding a whole layer of skin.
      I have these little white or see-through strand, and little white dandruff like White stuff under my skin and nails.

      I went to the doctors, even though I knew I was going to be labeled.
      My skin is peeling off for crying out f****** loud !!!
      Like I’m not making this up!

      So they passed some tests ….it’s only been 24 hours so I’ll wait a bit.
      I’ll give them chance , even though I’m not expecting .
      So if anybody out there as any idea anything they could add to this? Anything I could just look up and the internet because I’ve tried everything that is to my common sense, possible to try …

      So if one wants to call me my number is 1+514-910-2228 ,my name is Mary , and I will be gladly answering your questions about what I know about this and I’m praying you’ll answer mine so we’ll go from there. Wish the best for y’all. Hang in there.

  4. What about glow worms, or some kind of thing called arachna something like spider mites but it’s a fungus. I can’t remember what exactly it was called?

  5. I am curious if reader ever got a diagnosis?? I am having similar symptoms and can find nothing online resembling. Thank you :)

  6. Hello
    I am in desperate need to contact someone that can support me with approaching a doctor because I have mongellons disease and have had it for 17 years It has ruined my social life and held me back in many ways financially but mostly it has caused me embarrassment for my three daughters and I don’t want them to grow up resenting me
    I am suffering from the neverending scarring of the keratin granulated lesions
    And the spirochaete infestation that seems to go through patterns of severity
    And I have a theory about the multicolored look like fiber but isn’t pieces found throughout every fluid in my body
