Chiggers are awful. I have never seen one, but I do see their bites!
Wisconsin; Black Flies, Deer Flies, Winnabago flies (you breath them and choke,) mosquitos. They aren’t everywhere, but they are good reasons to fish in the center of the lake!
Illinois; Democrat politicians. Only escape is to move to another state.

Regarding black flies. Wife and I were camping on Rock Island (just north of Washington Island). We were the only campers there. We decided to walk the perimeter of Rock Island one morning. We sprayed on Deep Woods off.
Halfway through the walk we were attacked by black flies, a small swarm. We ran forever and they followed us. Kept spraying the Off on us as we ran. Like a scene from Hitchcock’s “The Birds”. But worse.
