Scabies is caused by an infestation of the itch mite known as Sarcoptes scabiei. Mites are eight-legged parasites which are just 1/3 of a millimetre in length. These mites burrow into the human skin and will cause intense itching. The mites which are not visible to the eye consequently cause the condition known as scabies.
