You can still see marks on my feet from getting them at the ASA Classic. They will honestly drive you INSANE. The only time you could see them is if there are HUNDREDS of them. LOL!

I might trade chiggers for what I had bad the last time I went out: SEED TICKS!!!! Over 100 of them!!! They're horrid and the bites last longer than chiggers... hate 'em!!

Never seen a chiggar here in PA and hope not to ever be bitten by one. Sound like it really sucks.

You've never seen one because they are almost invisible to the naked eye. The only time you can really see them is when there is a ton on you.

If you have them that bad go to the doctor and get some stuff called chigger doom...it worked awesome for mine earlier this year.

I got a couple of them on me last year while cleaning a deer. Even after taking a long hot shower, I had the heebee jeebees all night. Kept thinking there were more crawling on me.My wife thought it was real funny watching me freak out all night.

There has been a bumper crop of chiggers and ticks this year. Heck I even got them in my yard this summer. I think we need to ship some East so you guys that don't have them can experiance em.

North and east, trust me there are plenty of them in the east. The seed ticks are bad around here too, I just havent run into a nest of them this year only in 5 or 10s at a time[&:]
