To the tiny mites or microbes living on our skin, we are like an entire planet. They have no understanding of our complex systems, such as the monetary system that allows our society to function. Similarly, we exist on Earth without fully comprehending the larger forces that govern our existence. It’s a fascinating example of how different levels of life can coexist, each unaware of the other’s complexities. It's truly a world within a world.

There are more foreign cells than human cells in your body. Every single nanometer of your entire body inside, and out, is slightly more than half, something else. ANNNDDD, there's an even smaller classification of viruses than the smallest known used to determine these numbers. So there's actually a whole plethora of undiscovered viruses on top of this. Yall scared of the wrong things.

Look at it this way, its better something harmless lives on our face. Nature hates a vacuum- get rid of the mites and something worse might take their place.

Ah, maybe this is why whenever I use certain facial products, my face tends to itch as if I have something crawling around my face.

I was sick of seeing ads trying to get rid of them. We are biodiverse stop trying to kill the little creatures that love you too.
