There are many different types of insects that bite or sting. Some bites and stings, like those from fire ants, wasps, hornets, and bees, are painful. Some can also spread illnesses, such as Lyme disease (black-legged tick), Rocky Mountain spotted fever (dog or wood tick), and West Nile virus (mosquito).

The bites of other bugs, such as mosquitoes, mites, and fleas, are itchy and uncomfortable, but usually harmless.

This time of year, we all tend to spend a little more quality time outdoors. But even the best day outside can be tainted by insect bites… Itchy, irritating, possibly infectious insect bites. It is important, therefore, to not only be able to identify biting insects, but also their bites for proper treatment and potential health risks.
