    I set out my tree stand on a new property Sunday. It's about 30 yards inside the woods with multiple trails leading to a u-shaped food plot. Got my camera set-up and hope to share some great pics by this coming weekend. For my efforts, I got a big mess of chiggers!

    I feel for ya.

    I've faired well with the bugs during set ups and scouting this year. I'm looking forward to colder days when the bugs are gone.

    I got covered with chiggers twice this year. 1 week apart. Is it me or does it seem there is more this year than the past five years. I've never got chiggers before. I hunt in southern new jersey.

    I tried using off earlier and that didn't last long. Fired up the Thermacell and no mas bugs. Going to try the Earth scent pretty soon to see how the smell is.
