First Aid for Chigger Bites

-- Treatment consists of reducing discomfort and preventing infection. Household remedies aimed at killing the chigger are unlikely to help with the itching, since the larva frequently have dropped off before treatment is started.

-- The affected area should be kept clean by washing with soap and water.

-- A topical hydrocortisone cream, antihistamine, or local anesthetic may be of value in reducing the itching. Consult your physician or pharmacist.

-- The wounds should not be scratched, if possible. Clip fingernails short to limit damage to the skin.

-- If signs of infection occur, consult your physician
