From Chigger Holler Farm: There are two things I use faithfully are CLEAR NAIL POLISH FOR CHIGGERS to smother those rotten little critters and Noxema to help itiching. I use the Noxema for sure with tick bites...believe me after moving from Seattle area I had no antibodies and was miserable til I tried the Noxema...it's the ONLY thing that eases the itching for me...use it liberally and frequently! (Can't miss the smell, but it's worth it! :) )
