5. Clove Oil
Another effective home remedy for scabies is the clove oil. This is because it contains antioxidants; it is anesthetic and also has antimicrobial constituents that accelerate the healing effect of sores. These properties found in the clove oil have the ability to make the scabies symptoms dry i.e. the rashes and blisters.
A study was carried out in 2010, whereby pig and rabbits were used to test if the clove oil had the ability to treat scabies. Bioassays results revealed clove oil as being highly toxic to the parasites. The toxic substance found in the oil is called eugenol and it showed high levels of toxicity compared to benzyl benzoate.
In order to have significant results, you should mix 10 drops of clove oil with a teaspoon of honey and a teaspoon of coconut oil. The honey and coconut oil are for skin relief. Apply the mixture twice per day.
