Make sure it's clean, don't forget that Gnat could have bitten countless other people first then get an anti-itch cream from your local chemist.

Take an antihistemine (such as you would normally take for hay fever).

so it's not just me then! I have about 5 and over the last few nights they have developed! but none elsewhere - so I wondered if it was fleas and re-de-fleaed the cat and dog and sprayed the bed with anti flea stuff.

why is it just my left foot that's being attacked?

[MadGamer]

Thanks for your suggestions people.

calomile (sp) location is very good, or calomile (sp again ) and witch hazel cream.

Have you got a double bed?

If so, which side of the bed do you sleep on?

Which side of the bed is the nearest window on?

[etccarmageddon]

erm I sleep furthest from window my left foot therefore is probably 3/4 of the length of the bed from the window. it's a double and I sometimes snore.

Didn't have any thoughts as to a solution, just a bit of a stalker that's all

Sorry, just thought it might have something to do with where your bed was in relation to the window.

You don't sleep with that foot hanging out of the bed or anything do you?

I have no idea. If I wake up and am able to remember my name it's a bonus so knowing where my foot is during the night is a difficult one.

I can tell you what it's doing, it's hosting an all night buffet for gnats by the sound of it
