For your information Thymol is found in thyme and oregano.

under NO circumstances. It would probably set your eyes on fire but
okay for eyebrows. I sometimes
use it on my face (carefully avoiding getting it anywhere near my
eyes). Some folks have even
used Listerine in addition to some other things to help get rid of
head lice.

Subject: Re: CS>Eye wash
I have a similar problem and asked my DR. She said mites get in the
eyebrows and eye lashes and to run a washcloth over each eyebrow to
like scrape
the mites off. I spray my eyes with CS, wait for a few minutes, then wipe
with the washcloth. She said to come back if that doesn't work as
there are some
mite killer medicines.
