I'm sure Marty knows blackberry and poison ivy; and wouldn't no-see-ums have bitten arms as well as legs; and aren't they active earlier in summer? I'm thinking an allergic reaction to something that is not normally problematic. Like hemlock, maybe? Jane -----Original Message----- From: naturens-owner@chebucto.ns.ca [mailto:naturens-owner@chebucto.ns.ca]On Behalf Of Martin Alpert Sent: Sunday, August 22, 2010 9:37 AM To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca Subject: [NatureNS] blackfly bites, or what are they I walked last thurs into North River Fall, in shorts. On my lower leg I had quite a few, what looked like, black fly bites. Some 40 on each leg, randomly spaced - not like I brushed into some noxious plant. Usually they are no problem and the next day they are almost gone. These itch a little. Today is Sunday and there really red and slightly raised. Anybody know what happened?
