Ever weed-eat through elephant ears*?

They make no-see-ems seem like fun.

*The plant, not the mammals appendages.

That’d be weird and mean.

Luckily, I don't remember ever having to deal with them.

It was my first experience, ugghhhh
They bit through my clothes, got in my hair and bit my scalp. All in short order, I am so disgusted with these welts all over my body.

There is nothing you can do but cover up / stay in. They’re the fricking devil.

I’m sure some baws will tell you some bullshite about smelling like a hooker. But nothing works.

Do they only bite certain people? What do you do to protect yourself?

It is truly unbelievable what they can do. They look like a speck of ground pepper and leave blistering bites.

Now I'm getting concerned.

Are these things all over the US?
