Chigger is a very tiny insect larve that latches on like a teeny tiny tick. And it itches like crazy for about 6 or 7 days. First you gotta kill em, thankfully warm soapy water works, then ya gotta stop the itching or you will go crazy. Usually get them around your ankles and legs below the knees. Itches more than twice as intense as mosquito bites. Think ankle crabs.

Trombiculidae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Trombiculid mites go through a life cycle of egg, larva, nymph, and adult.[14] The larval mites feed on the skin cells, but not blood, of animals, including humans (see trombiculosis). The six-legged parasitic larva feeds on a large variety of creatures, including humans, rabbits, toads, box turtles, quail, and even some insects. After crawling onto their hosts, they inject digestive enzymes into the skin that break down skin cells. They do not actually "bite", but instead form a hole in the skin called a stylostome, and chew up tiny parts of the inner skin, thus causing severe irritation and swelling. The severe itching is accompanied by red, pimple-like bumps (papules) or hives and skin rash or lesions on a sun-exposed area. For humans, itching usually occurs after the larvae detach from the skin.[15]

it. itches. like. a. sumbitsh.

Chiggers are also called redbugs in the deep south states like Alabama. They are a real nuisance. I have not had any chiggers in 25 or 30 years. Fortunately they don't hang out in the city.

I gotta get up a little early tomorrow I need to do a quick clean up on the 911. We have a car show at the local Hooters. After the show I will finally have a chance to do a good clean up and full wax on the 911. It has needed it since the trip to Michigan.
