I have always heard powdered sulfur in a sock then tap on your legs/body?...

If this is the case where does one get powdered sulfur?

In scouts we used the powdered sulfur mixed with baby powder. I never had a problem!

DEET spray on your shoes, pantleg, and ankles works.

It will probably be simpler for you to find deep woods off/something with DEET in it. It works.

Keep the grass/weeds mowed.

Tuck pants inside boots if outside for just a short while.

Wear chaps. I wear snakeproof chaps everywhere and rarely get a chigger when wearing them.

Back in the day, I used to soak rags in diesel and tie them around my boots. Poor man's way but it damn sure worked.

I just use Deep Woods Off (~90% DEET?) up here in NE Texas. Seems to keep them mostly at bay.

A couple of the construction guys I work with use those dog flea collars. They cut them in half and wrap them around their ankles.

Yep^^^ I am in construction and had a project in the middle of the woods once. Kept dog flea collars around the ankle part of my boots and no more chigger problems.

More white people receive food stamps than blacks.

DEET, the higher the % the better.

I might be misreading your link but I am reading it as a larger percentage of black receive food stamps, but I believe the total number of whites is greater.

If you go by sheer numbers, maybe, but American population is 78.1% white, 13.1% Black according to the 2011 Census. So, there's that.

[sorry for the derail, im done]
