A red bug bite is often caused by the bite of a chigger, which is the larval stage of a mite. These tiny mites typically thrive in grassy or wooded areas and attach themselves to the skin, causing irritation and redness. Allergic reactions to insect bites, such as those from mosquitoes or fleas, can also result in red, itchy welts. In some cases, skin infections or reactions to plants like poison ivy may be mistaken for bug bites.
