Scabies is a skin disease caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabei var. Horminis. The transmission of scabies is closely related to housing density, including transmission within the family. If one family member suffers from scabies, it will be very easy to infect the other family members through direct or indirect contact, especially if the family's personal hygiene is poor. This can occur due to the habit of exchanging personal equipment or the habit of sleeping together with patients with scabies. However, there are still few studies on the relationship between personal hygiene and the incidence of scabies in the family.
