I always thought they were a Southern thang, until we got some in a load of bark chips. Now they have made our deck their home.  |
First time I got chiggers, I was sitting on my dorm porch in Northern Iowa.
I had one episode that was so bad while in the Army, I swear I was itching for at least 6 months!
