fleas in my boots?

[armchairarborist]

everytime i wear my 'good' haix's my feet and ankles come out with red marks and a bit sore. is it possible something has sneaked in there, likes it and enjoys a free meal most days? it doesn't happen when i wear my old boots or my trainers. is there a way of fumigating them without harming my precious boots? i've been leaving them outside incase i bring beasties into the house:blushing:

harvest mites?

just googled harvest mites thanks, looks like the boots are going for a holiday in the freezer to kill them. hope it works:thumbup1:

I got the same thing today in my new boots , but there a plastic material which won't allow my feet to Breath so I just put I down to heat and sweat as they do not itch ?? ( or in your case you could just be loopy )

Exactly the same here! Had thought it was my socks despite repeated washing. Boots in freezer then?
