Chigger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chigger or chigoe can refer to either of two parasitic arthropods with similar behaviors:
- the chigoe flea (Tunga penetrans), found in tropical climates
- the larva of a harvest mite (also called scru mite, red mite and several other names), found throughout temperate and tropical zones; the name chigger originated as a corruption of chigoe, but the harvest mite is what is most commonly called a chigger in North America.
