I guess I have been lucky all these years in weeds, woods, grass, etc. and have never had a chigger problem. The back of our property line joining, the owner got Parkinson really bad and his place was getting in bad shape as Amish recently bought it. I walked the fence line to check the fence and I must have gotten in a nest of chiggers. Around my ankles they have about eaten me up. I have tried nothing yet that will give very much relief as I have about used a tube of Cortisone 10 as it gives a little short term relief, but back to itching. This has been going on for several days, so surely it will run its course soon. With a lot of rain they must be bad this year.
