This cannot "smother" the chigger because it has not burrowed into your skin, and it was probably scratched off long ago. The only benefit to applying a thick coat of nail polish is that it helps to remind you not to scratch the bite
 
Well, in the last 24 hrs I have realized that Off does not work on chiggers. So far I have about 10 of them, and more keep poping up. I geuss I'll have to find another product that works better.
 
Aww that sucks Ozzy

My mother used to send me to summer camp with a talcum powder container with powdered sulfer in it. I would sprinkle that around my waist band and in my soxs at the top, dark moist places is where they like and...NO CHIGGERS!
 
OK everybody asked for them and here they are. Some chigger pics.

I loved photos 406 and 399. Beautiful plants and scenes.

And NO I don't want to scratch your chiggers.

Ron as far as I know rubricorpora only grows in a small are in Fl.
 
DAng Ozzy you are lucky to see some many VFTS. I'm impressed with all the color variations. I saw flava var. maxima, flava var. flava and flava var. cuprea in your photos.

Hey Ozzy,
That was also my understanding (I don't know how small though). Picts 407 & 408 threw me off with the strong backlighting.
 
I think the VFT photos are a good example of how variable VFTs can be and still be "typical." There are some real beauties there.
