Tiny Red Bugs on everything outside

acon2119

There are a lot of tiny red bugs outside my house, on my garden furniture, on windowsills, walls etc.

Generally this is not a problem but it is a problem during this good weather when you want to sit outside to relax and eat while using the garden furniture. No matter how much I clean the table and chairs the bugs keep reappearing, meaning I cant leave my food, drinks, books etc on the table, and the bugs even crawl all over the chairs. Very Annoying.


Does anyone know what these are and if there's anything I can spray or clean the furniture with to keep them away.

Probably Clover Mites

Try moving the chair onto grass if you have some. These little lads always seem to appear on concrete and stone surfaces in warm weather.
I used to be fascinated with watching and squashing these when I was a kid, but nowadays I wouldn't notice them unless I had a magnifying glass.

If you had superpower type eyesight, you'd see even smaller mites crawling over your bedsheets and even on your skin. Sometimes ignorance is bliss :pac:
