As if deciding to go exploring and hiking with a 101 degree heat index was not bad enough, it got worse. Profuse sweating and that weak feeling finally made us call it quits. I started having a stinging feeling to my torso and arms. I thought it was from weeds and sweating. When we got home I lifted my shirt to look at my belly. Literally hundreds of chiggers! !! Stripping on the porch, and spraying down with 10% bleach water then shower. Whew! Got them. Then I noticed they were still there. Half dug in. So between my daughter and myself we scrapped a hundred or more out of my skin. Second problem...... they were not dead!!! Back in the shower and spayed down with 25% bleach. Stood in the shower stinging and feeling like I would come out an albino. Go back out in the light and scrapped out another couple dozen rascals. Time will tell how many I missed. Looking for petrified wood will wait for cool weather....lol
