Has anyone tried topical ivermectin on plants? In Florida we battle many bugs and fungi. Really wondering if this might be a miracle alternative to chemicals.

In case ivermectin DOES become "unavailable", I've known several people with that exact same skin condition. Since docs couldn't help, we tried something else: about a teaspoon of pool shock (specifically calcium hypochlorite 65% or better) in a tub of warm water. Soak everywhere affected for 20 mins (don't get in eyes). Problem solved after one soak.
That kind of pool shock converts to hypochlorous acid - same thing your immune system produces - so totally biocompatible. It would taste disgusting and I would not recommend, but you could literally drink that water in the tub and it wouldn't hurt you.
