GlossarySarcoptes scabiei

microscopic mite causing scabies by burrowing into skin

Sarcoptes scabiei, commonly known as the itch mite, is a microscopic parasitic mite that burrows into the skin of humans and other mammals, causing the condition known as scabies. This infestation leads to intense itching and a pimple-like skin rash, often requiring medical treatment to eradicate the mites and alleviate symptoms.
