How do i know if i have chiggers?

Question:

last night i was out in the country, like in hay barns and stuff. i expected to get some bug bites, but i have them around my ankles and on the top of my feet

i was wearing flip flops

how do i know if their chiggers? or something else? some are small bites, some are big

i know to put finger nail polish on them...but does it have to be clear polish?

thanks

Answers:
Chigger bites, with some people [me for instance] will turn into little blister-looking jobbies...and the itching is beyond all describing. I've found something called "Chigarid", which is similar to clear nail-polish and will quiet the itch and kill the burrowing critters that have invaded your ankles...

p.s. NO MORE FLIP-FLOPS, please!

Try rubbing alcohol or tooth paste.

Avon Original Skin So Soft Bath Oil is Great for a repellent.
Go to the site Avon.com and you can email them for the many uses for the bath oil.

A lot of times, chiggers will get around any elastic that you have, like around the waistband of your underwear. And they itch like crazy. I don't think anything really helps but hey, its worth a try. They are evil little critters!
