      I agree. All this rain must have them multiplying like crazy. Walked our lease for less than an hour on Thursday and got tore up by these suckers. At least thirty bites. These little buggers are worse than having poison ivy by a long shot imho.

            How much yard will that do? Good for fleas as well? I have an acre.

              I hadn't had a chigger bite in about 9 years but this weekend I got ate up with them weedeating some tall grass. That was after getting attacked by some wasps. Thinking about taking a soak in some bleach to see if it helps. Been using Chiggerex but the relief seems to last just a couple of hours.

                  The Sulphur works. I cut it with baby powder. Helps keep the stink down.

                    I'm not sure, I use it directly on me.

                      The axis I shot in april was covered in Ticks. Never seen so many before. When skinning it out it had me crawling.

                        I've not been to the lease since March and after reading this I'm scared to go. Those suckers are just plain miserable to get into. Last time I had them they got under my waist band of my underwear and it looked like I had a belt of bites completely around me.

                            Wife and I went and picked dewberries a few weeks ago and it didn't even cross our minds until I woke up that night itching. I knew immediately what happened. I went in the bathroom and turned on the light and good gosh! I probably had 100+ bites!! Miserable for a solid week. I've never had them that bad before. It was not fun. Needless to say, when I go out in taller grass now, I'm prepared.

                              I have gone through a lot of off and repel this year. Ticks have been really bad. Since I started using a lot of repellent it has helped a lot.
