I have lived in Texas most of my life and have always used sulfur dusted into socks and on clothing.

Chiggers once you get bite can be controlled by rubbing with soap.

Dear hubby is a skeptic and since I told him about the soap he has not complained about chigger bites.

Have a great time on your visit to Texas!
