Hi All,

I just wanted to say, I can vouch for the haemorhoids remedy posted somewhere in a local forum, that being nettle tea.  Or, more specifically, topically applied nettle tea bags.  Uhm... by 'I', I mean a friend who's not me, obviously!

In the same vein, I'm looking for tips on how to get rid of dandruff, and does anybody have any good tips for treating screw-worm attack?  I've read that benzyl alcohol works, which is to be found in jasmine and ylang-ylang teas, and cinnamon bark.  I also read that creosote and tar oils are traditional remedies.  Does anybody have any knowledge on these topics?

Cheers for now,

Jojo
