(Update: I wrote this post a long time ago. We now use Sulfur powder mixed with D.E. and put in an old sock to dust down with. That keeps the chiggers from biting. We haven't used deet or Off in many years.)
We didn't buy that property we came to see the last time I posted. There were topography and creek issues. We did just move to Missouri though a few weeks ago and are renting a house w/ gorgeous woods and pastures. The heat was pretty extreme the first week and there was no A.C. but that's been fixed. The woods have ticks and chiggers and I guess anyone that has woods and tall grasses are feeling their bite this time of year.
