“…Nevertheless, systematic studies on skin diseases caused by mites and insects living in indoor environments have been rarely reported, [1][2][3] and only several single case reports of skin injuries induced by a large variety of different arthropods were described. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] The presence of arthropods in indoor environments is conditioned by microclimatic factors and by arthropod reservoirs, such as moulds on walls, plants, pets and worm-eaten wooden structures (furniture, parquet, beams, firewood). Moreover, reproductive cycle of several indoor arthropods is seasonally conditioned and their seasonal peaks increase risk of morbidity for humans.…”
