Oh and the bite looks like a mosquito bite-about the same size and redness and all, but itches far, far more than any skeeter you will ever be bitten by...

Chiggers are small, almost microscopic mites that burrow under your skin
and cause severe itching. The only way to kill them is to cut off their
air supply, suffocating them. Most folks I know use fingernail polish
to accomplish that.
Google "chigger" and you will even see pictures.

Here is a question - what the heck is a "chigger" (mentioned in the
firewood thread). I know what ticks are and I assume that chiggers
are an insect that bites humans - but like a horsefly or like a
mosquito or ???
