sand flea

I was not bothered by mosquitoes, sand fleas or flies.

“You got to keep eating them. One oyster w-w-wouldn’t keep a sand flea alive.”

Deet is an effective repellent against sand fleas, but it’s also a good idea to avoid beaches soon after a rain.

Doctors then removed the sand fleas from the bottom of her foot and diagnosed her with tungiasis.

A huge sand flea, heavy as a pebble, jumped first onto my chest and then onto my cheek, and I lurched upward, batting it away before it could bite me.
