The demodicid is a small worm like creature less than 0.4mm in length. Without them, our facial pores would clog up pretty bad.
I'm curious, given their tiny size, how is it that when we are born, we eventually pick them up? How do they ever find their way to my face? I feel quite positive that they don't crawl along the ground and up my leg and into my eyelashes.
I sure hope my mother didn't give me them... what a jerk!
