We all know they are there but a few of us get eaten alive every season by these devilish critters. So...... whatever it is you do to prevent them just DO IT !!!!
My grandson and I went fishing the other morning. We drove their Ranger pulling the boat to the water's edge. Then launched the boat. Afterwards reloaded the boat. During that brief period in a freshly bushhogged launch area I got about 10 visitors up my legs.
I typically used Deet 40 on my skin and Permethrin on my clothes and still get a chigger occasionally. I had not used anything that day.
