All good suggestions. I’ve heard the nail polish thing is a myth but frick if it hasn’t worked for me before.

Nail polish on each one before blisters.

True. You are having an allergic reaction to the remnant feeding tube after the mite dropped off. Benadryl is your best bet. I have dealt with them far too many times to count.

One of the best things about living in the Pacific NW is that there are no chiggers (or poison ivy, or poisonous snakes, or ticks).
