They are back!

Should be a bumper crop!

Back with a vengeance - and they're riding on tics.

I got eaten alive by chiggers while camping at Texoma a few weeks ago.

Mosquitoes are back in force too, was hoping the freeze killed them but nope.

Just like my dog she doesn't get flea's I don't get chiggers.

Put a little dab of clear fingernail polish on each one. Thank me later. Also Benadryl cream will relive the itch.

But as an old Texas saying goes, " An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

Scratch them down to the bone for satisfaction and then smear with rubbing alcohol. It will burn so damn bad it will quit itching.

Witchhazel

Napalm!

I normally get eaten up with chiggers but I haven't gotten any yet. I'm thinking our chiggers have drowned.

finger nail polish, does nothing to relieve the discomfort of chiggers....
However, benadryl will help.............

Bifen I/T.
Use a hose end sprayer. Spray the whole area.


Gone.

Sulfur sock.

No chigger problems yet, but the mosquitos are as bad as I have ever seen them. No matter how much Off I use, I still get bitten.

I seen a mosquito today that was so big he could f*** a chicken flat footed.

I heard bleach will kill’em good.

Hot shower and bathe whole body with Nutrigena T Gel shampoo. Do it a couple times.

Finger nail polish doesn't work, tried it several times.








I almost killed myself with bleach. Came in from hunting covered in chiggers, bites all over me from my neck to my ankles. Was told to run a bath tub full of water as hot as I can stand it, and pour a cap full or two of bleach in and soak in it. I was itching so bad a cap full or 2 didn't sound like enough, so I poured close to a half gallon of bleach in and turned on the fart fan. When it hit me it was too late. Tried to stand up but couldn't, everything was spinning and could hardly move my arms & legs. I crawled out of the tub on my belly and finally got the door open, then crawled into the hallway and laid there necked. That's how my wife found me, I could hardly respond to her. She almost called 911, that would have really been embarrassing. Was a pretty stupid thing to do, but I was ate up all over and itching like mad and just wanted to kill the little bass turds.

and no, after all of that the bleach didn't work either.

No chiggers in Wyoming , yeah !

Chiggers do not get under the skin. They bite you and leave. They have an enzyme that they inject when they bite you. It will itch for several days The various treatments to kill them don't work because they are not there. I had bites so bad the Dr knocked me out to keep me from scratching. I was covered in bites from the waist down. Best to keep them off before they can bite and take Benadryl for the itching.

This is correct, and wish I would have known that back then lol.

I always spray my boots and pants legs with Permethrin and then Off on top of it....that has worked really well.

I haven't had chiggers in years............

Red-bugs.

Hate those little red bastards.
But I once got into seed ticks and they were even worse. Itched for about a damn month from em.
