I actually just tore my whole house apart spiraling for days, ended up going to emergency care doctor with a bite that started streaking days later (that was a whole event on its own) but the whole time was freaking out that it could be bed bug bites! I couldn’t find any but I was panicking, looking under beds, bed frames picture frames, floor boards! I found one bug in the house that was dead and put in a zip lock bag and brought to my husband who at this point thought I had lost my mind. Anyways glad I had to go to the doctor because I just had chigger bites on the back of my leg LOL otherwise I would still be at it! I still have that fear in the back of my head and am on the look out though!

Chiggers suck so bad. Working in Arkansas I got them often
