Unfortunately, we're all too used to them. Around here there are the fire ants--if you accidentally stand on a bed, it only takes a few seconds until they nail you. If you walk through tall grass the chiggers work more slowly, taking a few hours to appear as bright red welts (itch like hell) and if you're really unlucky you come into contact with the poison ivy. Three days later you're in itching hell with that stuff. And the slower it takes effect, the longer it torments you.

I have all three on the property. I'm careful out there.
