I spray or soak my hammock for the mosquitoes, but my tree straps? No. But, ... of course hike your own hike.

I'll take that under advisement and see what happens without spraying the tree straps.

I hang my stuff from a clothes line and spray both sides then let it sit for a day to dry.

"You know if you find a gold chigger egg it's worth a hundred bucks."

My crazy old uncle used to tell me that. I believe he drank.

I'm betting you are right. Plus, he probably wanted you to go away to look for that chigger egg.
