Those are the bane of my existence. There are several months out of the year I won't go to our camp because they're so thick. No amount of spray will get you by without at least 3-4 bites.

They are evil. I take full precautions. Long pants tucked into my boots, still I find a few that migrated their way to my groin.

Nymphs are about the size of black pepper.
