EP:352 | Chiggers and Ticks Explained

On this episode we"re joined by Dr. Jerome Goddard, Extension Professor of Medical Entomology at Mississippi State University. He is a true character and knows his insects. We wanted to learn about chiggers also called red bugs and ended up learning about ticks and Alpha Gal Syndrome. There is so much a person needs to pay attention to when outside and Jerome carefully explains it all. We really learned a lot during this discussion and also laughed at his wit. It’s important to know how to protect yourself. Listen, Learn and Enjoy. Send a text message to the show!
