There’s nothing better than taking a stroll through one of the gorgeous parks in the University Park area. But chiggers can lurk in tall grass waiting for a fresh victim. If these tiny insects attach themselves to you, you can inadvertently transport them back to your home. Then the infestation can spread quickly.

Chiggers are the immature stage of mites; they are more closely related to spiders than insects. Chiggers do not burrow into skin or suck blood. They pierce the skin with their mouthparts. Itching starts about 3 hours after the initial bite, the area then turns red.
