No-See-'ems

Posted Nov 07 2009 10:01pm

Sand fleas... also know as no-see-'ems ...  are not very friendly little bugs.  They bite you but you don't know they are biting you at the time. But a day or two later you see their bite mark popping up on you legs, arms and neck and they itch SO bad.  Itch seriously bad.  So bad you want to ripe your leg off just to make the itching stop.

So yeah we got biten the first day we arrived and have been itching sine the second day.  Anti itch spray, lotions or drugs don't seem to make a difference either.  We think we figured out where we got them and will stay away from that particular beach, of course.

But... I'm on vacation so how bad can it really be, right?
