Wife was bitten by one back in July while we were in PC Beach. We figure someone must've brought one into the room in an old suitcase or something. Hit her on the top of the thigh about 2 inches above the knee. The morning after she was bit, she had a red bump about the size of a mosquito bite, but a purple halo around it about the diameter of a Fosters beer can. The purple faded back to the bite site after a day or so and a large pustule grew at the bite site. A couple days later the pustule was about 3" in diameter and raised a 1/2 inch with red and purple directly around it. She went to the Dr. and they gave her an oral. Cleared it up pretty quickly, I was suprised. She's got a nickle sized divot in the top of her leg now.
