The itching may not exactly correlate to the location of these bumps.
As the infestation progresses, these bumps become more red in color.

These mites lay eggs under the skin and feed on blood.
The mites are about the size of a pinhead, are nearly transparent, and usually cannot be seen.

5. Scabbies symptoms
The most common scabbies symptom is extreme itching, particularly at night.
The itching is the result of an allergic reaction to the mites and their waste.
