Mite dermatitis

Dermatitis caused by mite bites is collectively referred to as mite dermatitis. There are many types of mites. Here we only introduce the dermatitis caused by lice mites and acarids. Because the disease mostly occurs in farmers who come in contact with grains in the autumn harvest season, it is also called grain itch. "Itch", "grocery itch", "grass pruritus", "urticaria-like mite dermatitis", "pumon dermatitis" and so on. Since this type of mites are parasitic on crops, flour, grocery products and larvae of molluscs, they eat nutrients. Therefore, this disease mostly occurs in farmers, porters, milling workers, and sleeping mats who often come into contact with crops and their products. Can happen even to people.
