I keep getting what looks like a cluster of bites on my face. The bites are mostly on my left cheek (the side I sleep on). I have tried EVERYTHING!!! I’ve bought several pillows, new mattress covers (hypo-allergenic), checked for bed bugs (no), checked for spiders and webs (no), checked for fleas (no). I’ve used tea tree oil at night and it seems to be the only thing that helps. The bites don’t even itch really. They are just really bothering me because they won’t go away! Also, I know it’s some sort of bite and not a rash because the center of the bite looks like it has a little hole (maybe where I got bit by whatever the hell it is!! My boyfriend is not getting bit either.

1Sounds like some kind of bedbug ,chiggers or some nocturnal insect . Fumigate the room well with a smoke type insecticide daily for a three days or preferably at night when they are active. that means you will sleep in another room .
You may try eating a different diet for awhile like radishes , onions and such that would "sour" (make you less desirable) to the blood suckers. if you can find it at a pharmacy get some sulfur and eat a half teaspoon once a day for three days (hint mix it with honey) fleas ticks and mosquitoes don’t like it.

5Are you sure they aren’t mosquito bites or something? My friend had something like that once, but she never really figured out what it was…
Maybe you should spray your bed for bedbugs, just in case.

8it may not be a bite, it could be hives or an allergic reaction to something (moisturiser?) because the little hole could just be your pores

9Even though you checked for bed bugs, you might have them. Make sure everything is off the floor. Dust everything, and make sure the walls are cleaned and such andnthen vacuum. Clean your room very thoroughly and change your sheets.
Bed bugs are difficult to find during the day, they can hide in places like cracks in the walls or ceilings, wood holes, bedroom clutter or nearby furniture. They are never in plain sight and avoid light.

10micro-organisms? mosquitos?
i do advise you to get a pest control to eliminate ALL pests as you might not be able to see them.

12You might have some spiders that are laying eggs inside your cheek at night and then retreating back into the shadows before the morning comes. You’ll know if this is what’s happening or not when the eggs hatch.

13are you sure they’re not zits? cause they can develop when you use a pillowcase for too long; your face’s oil gets on the pillowcase and stays there. and tea tree oil is clinically proven to reduce acne. try changing your pillowcase every day, and washing your face well before bed.
good luck

14I would think it’d be bed bugs but if you’ve checked, hmm that’s a hard one. Usually bed bugs come out at night and they bite in clusters. Make sure you are washing your sheets every few days and wash them in hot water, just in case.
Weird that your bf isn’t getting bit.

15Maybe they are pimples….well its probally your pillow or something is in the room…are all the windows closed?
Count all the ones you have one night before you go to bed, and sleep in another room or on the couch and see if you wake up with any new ones….if you don’t well then its just something in your room…if you do i would go see a doctor, just to make sure.
Good Luck!

16Odd.
Mosquitos or ants a possibility?
Perhaps you are using something on your face at night that is attracting them?
Try spending the night elsewhere and see if it really is something in your usual sleeping area. If you aren’t bitten while sleeping elsewhre, then you might ‘bug bomb’ your room or have a pro treat the area.
Best wishes.
