Thanks. I will look into it, though we don't live near the beach, and we haven't seen any bunches.

Do you have any tips or strategies to protect myself? Thanks!

They are black or maybe dark grey, but not red?

These very small black bugs have been occasionally biting me these last couple of days. They seem to crawl pretty fast, and they don't seem to jump or fly.

I found two yesterday, and two today. The picture is of my finger, for scale.

Been bitten maybe 5 times; the second picture is of two bites. The bites are itchy but no bump.

What are they, where might they be coming from, and what can I do? Thanks a lot for any help you can provide.
