before or after they begin their bite? they're so small as larva they're almost invisible. an immediate (like right away following exposure) hosing down of the threat areas usually prevents more bites. at this point heat is ineffective. following being bitten, scalding hot showers are work with me.
I get four to eight hours of chigger itch relief (same with poison oak, ivy and sumac rashes).
i don't know why more drs. don't recommend brief exposure to scalding but they don't ... but for people like me who are tormented by insect and allergenic reactions heat is an excellent histamine blocker.

Chiggers are tiny 6-legged creatures. They are known to attack people in wooded and/or damp areas. They are most commonly found during summertime when grass and weeds grow the heaviest. Chiggers do not bury themselves into the skin like small ticks do; they bite near the hair follicles and produce red welts which can be very painful and itchy. Chiggers are very small and cannot be seen without a magnifying glass. They usually feed on snakes, birds, and mammals; even humans. Chiggers usually bite humans where clothing fits tightly or in places like waistlines, armpits, and behind the knees. Chiggers are not known to carry disease in the United States. When they bite, the symptoms can continue for about a week. If symptoms are not treated, then they become a secondary infection.
