...little red bugs sent from the devil. Dove hunting this weekend, those suckers ate me up. Ate all my buddies up too. If y'all find yourself in the Brady area, prepare to be ready to scratch your ankles raw. I hate those SOBs.

They've been terrible this year. Everywhere, I think! Use permethrin or off before you go out. Take a bleach water bath after you're infested. About a cup in the tub. This will not stop the itch, but it will keep them from moving. A long swim in the pool will also work. Chigger X cream will help with the itch.

This stuff works when it is fresh but I will now re-apply it every time I go out instead of 6 washes or last for 30 days. Wore the clothing again 2 weeks later, no wash and no re-Application and no long boots, they got me. Treat your clothes & long socks, wear long boots and tuck your pants into your socks and apply every time you go out and should be fine. It even repelled the mosquitos on the first visit. They were flying around but would not land on us!
