How can we prevent inhaling or ingesting mites that live on everyone?
I was distraught to learn today that "mites are living on everyone": Demodex folliculorum, Demodex brevis.
What can I do, and not do, to prevent them from entering my body?
Am I correct that any contact between anyone's skin and your orifices can facilitate these mites to enter your body? So no eating with bare hands, or touching anyone?

Mites: A mite called Demodex folliculorum, which lives in hair
follicles, is thought by some scientists to be the cause of
rosacea. The belief is that the mites clog oil glands, which
leads to the inflammation seen in rosacea. These mites reside
in almost everyone’s skin and, like P. acnes, may just be innocent bystanders.
