Got bit by some little white looking nats a few days ago. Still itches and still have whelleps on my hands. Anyone ever encounter these? They were small but carried a big bite. It feels like poison oak but it was from the nats...

I have never encountered those type nats...or gnats. You know like the African antelope, Gnu? The only ground critter that ever did me that way was those darn tiny little yellow jacket wasps and fire ants. Fire ants are especially bad and you might as well let them have whatever your were trying to dig up. The more you squish, the more that comes out and tries to eat your hands! Monty
