Benadryl cream will stop the itching. They will disappear in a couple of days.
The bleach bath will work if you do it immediately after contact, but who wants to get in a tub with bleach?

You’ll know the answer to that when your cods are the size of grapefruits. Benadryl won’t kill them and they don’t stop eating until you kill them.

I'd jump in a tub of tarantulas if it took away the torture of chigger bites. 10% bleach solution bath, no worries mate.

Dusting sulfur for plants ,put about a quarter cup in an old sock .Keep the sock in a baggie. I keep one under my truck seat and dust my feet and legs before I get out if I think there is a chigger within 5 miles.

Invention idea #72
Sulfur/Sulphur satchels (TM pending) Maybe a stronger panty hose type material bag that closes with a double zip lock at the top. About the size of those pods you put in the dishwasher. Fill satchels with sulfur/sulphur and place in pockets before going into the woods/working around tall brush or grass.
Sulfur/Sulphur satchels are not responsible for any skin sensitivity, ulceration, or cancerous lesions.

Chiggers are not cool. Got them a couple of years ago in the Longview area. Everyone looking at the project for them out of the grass. Never a pleasant experience.

Hempvana pain cream
I found out by accident that this works better for itching than anything else I've tried. Almost instant permanent relief.
Just one more cast!

I told her it might work but will turn her pubes blonde. Forget the chiggers. I wanna know just how close you were to said neighbor to tell you her pubes turned blonde Not as close as one of my other neighbors but not going into that one. I know she did not like my blonde joke. Cofusciuos says women with blonde hair on head has black hair by cracky.
