My method of avoiding bug bites is to take a bath, put my clothes in the dryer and change shoes after walking around outside. Today I thought I would go ahead and use insect repellant and skip the bath and changes of clothes and shoes. Then I went out and put some birdseed on the bird bench. So within two hours I had an itchy welt from chiggers. Then I took a bath, changed clothes and shoes, and put nail polish on the bite to smother the chiggers.
We have gnats. I hate them. I hope the chiggers had a painful death and word gets out.
ReplyDeleteI don't like gnats either. .
