Abstract
Scabies is a significant global public health issue that affects 200 million people worldwide. We reviewed English language, publicly available online resources concerning the management of scabies for guidance on fomites. Information was collected from 10 resources in March 2024. We believe the quality of information used to advise individuals about appropriate decontamination of fomites should be improved.
