No see ums

Recommended Posts

I recently saw a thread for no see ums on here but now can't find it. My son and I got them bad this weekend. Can anyone help me find that thread please. Thanks.

We were in 23S. My son text me from school, said he is going crazy itching. I took him some aloe Vera with lidocaine. The lady at the front desk of the high school said that he could not have it... Until I showed her my legs! Then she said it was fine! Definately helped the itching. We did the deet spray. But I think we got it so bad from sleeping under the stars a couple nights.

Thanks for helping. Sounds like a couple more days of itching the groin and wearing pants at work this week. Then better preventing next time. Sprayed but obviously not enough or in the right places!

" Itching of the groin" is usually crabs and not chiggers or no see umps.
