Come learn what is a Chigger and how to get relief from their bites can be a life saver when you are going insane from the itching consuming your skin.
Chiggers are a certain type of mite from the family Trombiculidae. They are also arachnids, like spiders and ticks. They are very small, red and barely visible to the naked eye and magnifying glass may be needed in order to see them. When the chiggers are in their larva form they have six legs, although the adults have eight. Like other arachnids there are three biological stages in their life cycle.
The stages consist of egg, larvae, nymph and adult. They hatch from eggs as larvae, develop into nymphs and finally adults. While in their nymph and adult stages chiggers do not bother humans and animals (talk about relief) but instead feed on small organisms, decaying plant matter, and insect eggs as well.
Chiggers can be found throughout the world,

I was told by someone this past weekend that it is politically incorrect to call these bugs chiggers. They are now known as chigroes.

If you get chigger bites the best remedy is calamine lotion and maybe a benedryl to relieve the itching.

Or would that be Chigrican-Americans?
