Mein Afro-Caribbean you have not wished for death until black flies, or chiggers

I've been to the South multiple times on business and recreational trips, and never seen chiggers but I've heard people talk about them. Are they really that big of a deal?

You don't see chiggers. Your legs just start itching like crazy and don't stop for a week or two. Once you've had them several times, you can tell what kind of areas they live in, but you can't actually see them. I see a certain kind of clearing with tallish grass, and I just know, "There's the chiggers."
Only way to avoid them is the sulfur sock.

Weird they never itch for me
I will get like 100 bites on my legs and they won't itch at all.

They're really not that bad. Just wear long sleeves and a hat with good coverage. While at camp build a fire to smoke them away. If no fires are allowed, citronella candle.

Give me a good bug net to buy.
Also, is Permethrin worth it?
