    Chiggers: Worse Than Ever This Year

    ChiggersMy feed reader has burst at the seams with people who are in the Nashville area, being totally invaded by chiggers. I feel their pain, literally, I’ve got several bites in a very, very bad place.

    The backs of my knees! (What were you thinking originally? Ha!)

    Here’s what some of my neighbors are saying:

    Annoying me today:
    1. Allergies (see previous entry)
    2. Chiggers (my yard runneth over)
    3. Chigger bites (I have over 10 bites, most located in areas where it is improper to scratch)
    4. Did I mention the damn chiggers?

    They are driving me CRAAAZY! I’ve got ‘em on my ankles, my elbow, my inner thigh (WTF?), and my daughter has them on her back.

    Both would like to know how to kill chiggers in the most natural manner possible. Me, I’m all about unnatural manners of killing chiggers, as long as they DIE! Who has a good remedy?
