I have found that if you scratch hard enough, the scabs go away quicker than waiting for the itch to stop...

Ahh, the good old day in the 1st Cavalry Division in Ft Hood, TX. 30-90 days in the field at a time, and lots and lots of chiggers.

Chiggers ain't near as bad now as they were when I was a kid... Fire ants keep them pretty much in check...Same with ticks...

Hate to hear about the chiggers, cause that means we will have them soon. I use Icy Hot or Bengay on them and it sure makes the itching go away. Might want to be careful with that around the boys though.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost....

Sandpaper and Turpentine. Guaranteed to make you forget the chiggers.

My son used this stuff when he was in the Army. I got some and it seems to work pretty well. Heavy on sulphur, judging by the smell. www.chiggaway.comPaul
