Chiggers, also known as Trombiculidae, are small parasitic mites that feed on the blood of warm-blooded animals. They have been found on humans, dogs, cats, and even birds. The bites of chiggers are often painful, with red bumps or welts at their feeding site. Chigger and bed bug bites are similar in nature, but have different symptoms. Both are brought on by insects. Bed bugs bite humans for blood, whereas chiggers use their saliva for blood meals. It’s important to know the difference between these two bites and how the symptoms compare. You’ll also want to learn about the two types of insect bites since they can cause very different types of damage when they happen to you or your pets.
Pictures Of Chigger Bites And Bed Bug Bites
Chigger Bites
Chiggers are tiny mites that live in grassy areas. They are not insects, but rather arachnids, which means they have eight legs. With one exception, all chiggers have four pairs of legs. The exception has three pairs of legs.
Chigger bites look like small red bumps on your skin. The bites may be itchy and painful. If you scratch the area of your skin where the chigger bit you, it can cause an infection or create scars.
Bed Bug Bites
Bed bug bites look like red bumps on your skin that are slightly swollen. The bites are usually found on your arms, neck and face, but they can also occur on other parts of the body if you sleep with your clothes off or in contact with your bare skin.
Bed bug bites do not always itch or hurt (although sometimes they do). If you have been bitten by bedbugs and experience itching or burning sensations within a few hours of being bitten, there is likely some sort of allergic reaction going on inside your body from the bite itself or from an insecticide used to eliminate these pests from your home environment.
Chigger bites are a type of skin irritation that usually occurs when you’re outside and the chiggers bite you. The bites are red, itchy bumps that look like mosquito bites. Chigger bites can last up to two weeks and may become infected if scratched.
Bed bug bites look similar to mosquito bites, but they tend to be in straight lines or clusters. It’s common for bed bug bites to appear in two rows on either side of your body where the bedbugs bit you while you were sleeping. Bed bug bites can itch, but they’re not typically painful unless you break open the skin around the bite itself.
