Actually,..he's probably laughing at all of the ones that KNOW what they are..Most people that know what a chigger is have had their ass torn up by them..

Then they learn about calamine lotion, and the alternative uses for fingernail polish.

Yup. My grandmother put me in the tub when I got them as a little kid and poured a few ounces of pine-sol in the bath water.. apparently that's how they did it before the war...

We don't have them up here in the northeast, but ticks are a huge concern. Pretty much spend the spring/summer doing tick checks

Yeah, those little buggers like to crawl up somewhere dark and warm and attach.

Chiggers AKA Redbugs are like noseeums but they do not fly. Fire Ants have made a huge dent in the redbug populations and almost wiped out ticks (in some places). Been junkyarding for more than 40 years and I got to tell ya, those Pick Your Part places are very civilized compared to the old school places in the weeds and sticks I grew up frequenting. Love them both but as I get older, that huge gravel area with stands under every vehicle does have it's appeal!
