So now it’s mites. If it ain’t one end, it’s the other.

Are you sure that's mites, and not chiggers?

Not 100%.  I am leaning toward mites because, in my experience, chiggers attack where clothing is tight.  I have no bites at my waist.   I have very few bites on my other foot.  I did my normal chigger tx a few days ago, and there was only short term improvement.   I have had Turkey Mites before on my arms, and this seems very similar.

Ugh. My mom was attacked by turkey mites last spring. What are you putting on them? Take care, m'friend.

It sure was nice of your sister to lend us her car. Let's show our appreciation by sharing this tiny ad:
