The chiggers in my area are the worst I’ve ever seen can’t hardly walk around outside without getting them. Any one else having that problem. Or know a good remedy to stop the itching.

Well buddy, use deet a lot before you go out and if you get them use extra strength Benadryl itch stopping gel. That stuff really helps.

When we were kids grandma used campho phenique (spelling) but I don't remember how well it worked. Now they have it in a gel
