Unless you’re going all out with clothing-as-armor, naked is better.
Chiggers can’t directly get a grip on your flesh, mouth parts too weak. They gotta back that ass into something to get started. Like your clothes.
Ticks are instantly observable because without clothes you can feel them tickle. In any case, you can see them before they lock on.
Mosquitoes? I got nothing.
Idk, long sleeves, pants and socks seem to work fine for me. But maybe I am just genetically lucky or something, it’s been a while since I had one bite. Oh, and obviously taking a bath in icaridin.
I have had many ticks but never could I feel one of them walk around on me.
you’d probably notice if you woke up with one crawling up your arm
source: trust me bro (I have dogs)
If I woke up and saw it sure. But I would jot wake up because of it crawling.
Source: trust me bro I had one 3 weeks ago almost bite my cock.
Most people seem to have a pretty bad sense of touch.
During certain times of years you get a lot of single spider-silk threads flying in the air and I constantly walk into them. But almost no one else seems to notice them.
People don’t notice them? I usually don’t see them and my brain immediately starts telling me ~something is weird~ on my arms.
Always takes me way too long to figure it out because the first thoughts are always incredibly rational “what if i got bitten by a giant snake i didn’t notice?” And “where is the crawling bug?” Only then “oh, yeah, the thin spider web…”
I recently have been bitten by quite a few ticks and can never seem to find them until days later. They are so fucking tiny, smaller than a grain of sand! Oh yeah just feel my legs? How do you tell the difference between a tiny scab from a thorn scratch or a tick then? Usually only find them once they have been there for a while and got bigger. Which isn’t exactly ideal.
If you are outside you need to just check for them.
Every time I read or hear “chigger” it always sounds like a slur
Ironically, people in the South call them “red bugs”. Felt like I was speaking slurs when I moved here.
Anyway, chiggers got no place in decent society. Just sayin’.
I don’t dislike all bugs but those damn chiggers, man
Woah, it’s chigga for you
Chigga please.
I have two defences against mosquitos.
Thick body hair they tangle in, and my body acclimates to regional mosquitos so I don’t get itchy.
Acclimating happened when I moved here! I’d get eaten alive at sunset, itchy for 20 minutes. Now? I can’t remember an itchy bite, not for 20 years.
Hairy leg people might not be that safe.
Well you put your pants into your boots so the ticks have to climb all the way to somewhere where they can get on your skin. At that point you might be at home already and can strip away your clothes and yeet them to the washer
I strip, scrub in the shower, yeet everything in into the washer on full hot.
Dick tick
This is a genuine thing that happened to my cousin while in the army. No one believed at first, but he had clear proof after everyone gathered around to see it before he went off to the nurse
EDIT: at the very tip
If you think your clothes will keep dick ticks from happening then you clearly haven’t encountered many ticks.
That’s what the permethrin is for
and also…not having a dick
Damn, I wish I’d thought of that before my mom’s PCOS gave me one.
Aight, Imma tell it.
Showering and saw a tiny black spot under my dick in the V-shaped area where the shaft meets the head. Thought it was a piece of dirt as I had been fucking around at camp and getting filthy. You already know how this ends.
Damn bro, getting your dick sucked for ages for free!
That’s nightmare fuel right there. I don’t even have a dick, and I still cringed in horror.
Oh no.
That was way worse than mine. I was probably around 5 years old and it was on my balls. I had no idea what it was, but fortunately, my parents quickly picked up on what was going on since I was grabbing my junk a ton that day. I was fine and it was just a dog tick, but the whole encounter was still nasty.
Somehow both better than when I got a tick on my taint. However because it’s an awkward spot, I had to lay on my back like a baby getting my diaper changed well my significant other tweezed it off.
Learned that ticks love warm spots before they dig in for a snack. Groins, armpits, behind ears. So check your taint, balls and ass after every hike.
You better hope not.
It’s nice to take such affectionate little cuties home with you
