I was working on a garden with mites, applying neem and removing lower branches and such. after a bit i started to feel some minor insect bites but when i look at the spot theres nothing there(thats why i think it was mites) i got around 50-70 bites and some swollen lymph nodes from the deal. anybody ever been bitten by mites before? I do have small allergic reactions to spider bites and i have had swollen lymph nodes from bites before

Thrips can bite and look very similiar. Get you something with spinosad in it and the bugs will be gone.

Mites are so tiny that they can barrow in your skin and not notice..do you think you would really feel the bite? You have thrips as someone else said.
