Chiggers

[yescyam]

can gft !!! Holy hell, was out at a couple nature areas recently and came back with a shit ton of bites. I'm scratchin' them until they bleed. Of course, instead of going to my pcp, I'm seeking more qualified help from GIAOT/HROT. Those of you unfortunate to have similar experiences, what are my options? Do I need to fap more?

Kill it with fire.

Calamine lotion and mittens.

Stay away from ladies of the night.

The only thing I did was shower with very hot (almost painful) water and scrub them off. Put on an itching cream after if you have to.

I've heard some people put nail polish on them.

Those “no see ems” are out in Iowa. The those damn things.

Only if you go back to the area, where you received the bites, and roll around naked.

Sulfur powder is supposed to work.

I'm always amused when tourists in Florida pull some Spanish moss from a live oak tree to take home.

This is what we did as kids.

This. I get them at my cabin every summer. The best thing I've found is simply showering every day and thoroughly washing the effected area.

You may not get rid of them immediately, but it will calm the itchiness down and usually be gone in a week tops.

Same.


The other option is to shave half your pubic hair. Light the remaining bush on fire and then stab them with an ice pick as they flee.




Wait, thats for crabs.

Put the affected area as close as possible to the loudest speaker in your home. Then play "Moves like Jagger" by Maroon 5 loud as you can stand it. Usually they flee in under 20-30 seconds.

Will a Michael Bolton song work?

Yep, nail polish, cuts their air off. when it dries, lift off the polish and you have a dead jigger.
