These tiny mites, known as\u00a0<em>Demodex<\/em>, live in the hair follicles of your face and come out at night to feed and mate. While almost everyone has them, an overgrowth can lead to uncomfortable symptoms like irritation, redness, and a gritty feeling in your eyes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Are Eyelash Mites?<\/strong><br \/>\nDemodex mites are naturally present on human skin, especially around the eyelashes and sebaceous (oil) glands.
