It is interesting to note that ivermectin is actually a natural product produced by Streptomyces avermatilis (a gram positive bacteria commonly found in soil). Some of my current research is actually working with various species of Streptomyces...

If you were to smell actively growing streptomyces, invarialbly you would say that they smell like fresh potting soil. Truth is, fresh potting soil smells like them, because it is loaded with them...food for thought



Very few people realize that over 70% of commercial antibiotics come from Streptomyces (yeah, even bacteria want to kill bacteria). Think of the arms race going on in your yard right now. Bacteria killing bacteria, resistent bacteria developing, new antibiotics being produced...
