One night. One application. Done.
That’s the Skabi-Rid difference.
While older treatments demand multiple applications over days, Skabi-Rid’s Permethrin 5% vanishing lotion needs just one:
✔ Apply from the ears to the soles of your feet at bedtime
✔ Leave on for 8–12 hours while you sleep
✔ Wash off in the morning with normal soap and water
Non-greasy. Easy to apply. Proven to work.
Ask your pharmacist for Skabi-Rid — by name.

Myth: “Scabies means you’re dirty.”
Fact: Scabies has nothing to do with hygiene.
You can shower twice a day, keep an immaculate home, and still get scabies.
Why? Because mites don’t care about soap — they spread through prolonged skin-to-skin contact.
Doctors get scabies. Nurses get scabies. Teachers, parents, athletes — anyone.
The only thing being “dirty” has to do with scabies is the unfair shame we attach to it.
Let’s wash away the myth, not our self-worth.

Meet the culprit: Sarcoptes scabiei.
A mite so small — about 0.4 mm — that you will never see it with the naked eye.
But you will feel it.
The female mite burrows into the top layer of your skin, tunnelling as she lays her eggs.
Your immune system reacts to the mites, their eggs, and their waste — and that reaction is the maddening itch millions know too well.
You can’t fight what you can’t see with willpower alone.
You fight it with the right treatment.

It started on a Tuesday.
A small itch on the wrist — easy to ignore.
By the weekend, it had moved to the fingers, the waist, the back of the knees.
By the second week, nobody in the house was sleeping.
This is how scabies works: quietly at first, then all at once.
The good news? The ending of this story is up to you.
Treat early, treat everyone, and the itch stops here.
Skabi-Rid is available at most pharmacies — just ask for it by name.
