If you take apple cider vinegar tablets for a few days before you head into an area that has chiggers they won't bite you. As a side benefit you will loose weight and have more energy. Once you get chiggers there isn't much you can do about them, I should know I've had thousands of bites from them until i found out about the vinegar tablets. My dad and I used to drink it before going hunting and it was pretty rough at 5 am.

I have dealt w/chiggers kicking my butt bad for a long time. I've tried everything under the sun to make the itch/bite go away. Just the other day I had some in an awful place. Searched & searched for a solution on the web & found one that actually works. Listerine Cool Mint! IDK if it has to be cool mint or not but it worked instantly & actually made the itchy spots go away. Pour it onto a towel, srub it on the 'bite' & it'll go away.

Once bitten, you have to man up. Time is the only cure.

I'm gonna give that a try. Plan on harvesting a few on my walk through the woods this evening. Do you gargle first, then spit it on the bite so as not to waste any?

Yes mouthwash. Pour it on a towel & scrub the bite w/it. I believe it is the combination of alcohol, ??? acid & something else I don't remember is what they say makes it work.

Just put on some OFF! & they won't bother you or sulpher in a sock, smack yourself w/the sock a few times on your boots, legs & wherever else you might get them. Prevention is the best cure. I hate the damn things w/a passion.

I have heard that bengay works good to get rid of them once you got em, but only on the parts the sun dont shine.

Dip more Copenhagen and you wont have to worry bout em in the first place. I eat Copenhagen from the time I'm awake till I go to bed and they still manage to get me. Without sounding gay, I don't spit out Copenhagen long cut. That's why I dip, I like the taste.. OH, I know I left myself wide open for a comeback from those two Bozo's "Kobeer and Rloving!! I don't know why I set myself up..
