... I can't even take them out anytime of the day without getting consumed, no bug spray works at all and I itch so badly that I'm breaking open my skin

I have lived in Georgia before, I grew up here and I NEVER remember being bit this badly.

I sat with a neighbour in the dog park and saw a little bastard fly over towards her then beeline it towards me and bit me on my arm

I mean we have a small creek behind our complex which I'm SURE makes it bad but we lived near a lake when I was growing up and I just can't remember CONSTANTLY ITCHING

I've goggled like ... as much as I can to find ways to make the itching stop, to help detour them, and nothing is working I just ... will live the rest of the warmer months itching my skin off

I get these HUGE welts when they do bite me

like massive, larger than a quarter

and I wear jeans outside now, which helps but somehow they still bite my legs and my ass apparently and it's just so fucking hot

bemoans fate
