Chiggers

Once you understand what chiggers do to your body, you will certainly choose to avoid them.  They do not bite - they spit on victims.  Their saliva destroys skin cells and it becomes a mushy mess.  Then the chiggers slop up that mush for food.  What is left behind is destroyed skin that itches, hurts and the damage takes a very long time to heal.

Treatment for Chiggers: 

Materials needed:

1. Before going outside, spray yourself with Greenbug for People/Pets.
2. Chiggers like to burrow where clothing is tight so spray thoroughly along the waistband and near undergarments.
3. Spray inside socks and in the cuffs of a shirt.
4. If you are outside for a long time or if you are doing strenuous activity, reapply as needed.
5. As an extra layer of protection, you can add ¼ cup of Greenbug Ready to Use or Greenbug Concentrate properly diluted to the fabric softener cycle of your laundry. This will infuse your clothes with a very faint aroma of Greenbug that will let the chiggers know that you are off limits.
