Today, I was spraying shrubs/flowers with plant food, all of a sudden my feet in "sandles" started to hurt/burn. When I looked down at my feet, I saw that I unknowingly stepped onto an "Ants nest". They were all over my feet & ankles, and man those little buggers bite really hard!!! Size does not always matter, gross numbers count!!! :wah: Need to always be careful where we step!!

And the worst are those that escape up your pant leg while you deal with the ones on your feet.

Another annoying tiny insect...two actually. Noseeums. You actually can't see them. They travel in hords and hit you like acid spray. The other is chiggers. They land on you and try to burrow into your skin. Thankfully they don't fit into the pores but it sure stings as they stick their heads inside.

Actually the opposite, my feet suffered while I concentrated on the ones going up!

(Luckily I had "Shorts" on, so they were easy to see)
