Stop the Itch!

“What's the difference between a chigger and a turkey tick. How do you know if you have one vs. the other. Damn my ankles itch! Blasted critters!”

“turkey tick is the pc term for chigger, only ignorant southerners use the term "chigger" nowadays.”

“BB, I will let you slide on that due to the painkillers......

You better be glad you didn't insult our grits though,,,,that might have caused me to send one of my former clients to see you...”

“Don't give him any ideas, chili.”

“I'll stop your itch indiana..come here baby”

“I should have said "ignorant ACC fanatic southerners" jk - I should have said ignorant people.”

“I must admit that I have never heard the term "turkey tick"”

“Me neither.. re: heard of a turkey tick before.”

“Gee, thought this would be HPM's thread.
Budda, chigger is the correct terminology as per my zoology texts. So sorry to dissapoint. Dang Ohio boy trying to sound smart again. ;)

HPM got lit up a few hundred times this past weekend by chiggers, ticks, mosquitos, ants, flies, etc. Looks like chicken pox.”

“when i went hiking through desolation and granite cheif wilderness there were so many skeeters you couldnt even pause to look at the flowers or scenery...
i got back from that trip covered in bites(thats the last time i forget the deet~at least i finially got some at echo lakes resort) i counted 43 bites just on my left arm from my hand to my elbow. itched for a week after...it drove me insane.”

“Skeeters and no-see-ums have no place in this world.”

“They're fish food. Fish love black flies and gnats even though we hate them.”

“Spirit coyote, during skeeter season, I always carry a small container with Preparation H in it. But you have to apply it to the bite BEFORE you start scratching. Just like the ad says, "stops swelling and itching". It really works!”
