No kidding. I found out the hard way. I didn't know what was causing the itchy blisters, (thought it might be some new drilling mud additive) so I dug one open under the microscope and found a bug. I drew a picture of it, showed it to the doctor (who treated me like a leper from then on) and was informed (after inquiring) what the critters were.
They aren't hard to get rid of, but who wants them!

Double ugh!!! Supposedly the itching is pretty intense and miserable. I understand some of the Border Patrol guys have gotten scabies from the illegals. At least scabies aren’t “life threatening”.
