I got a bug bite (lemmy.world)

I noticed a bug bite on my leg today. It's surprising to me because I thought it was currently too cold for mosquitos to live. Where I live, we do frequently get mosquitos in the summer, but not typically when it's this cold.

Also, the bite is in a unique spot. It's right below my knee. they typically prefer my hands/arms or my ankles.

Probably a spider bite. In SoCal, I get them a lot.

This comment single handedly convinced me that this is a spider bite.

I don't live near ticks, like the other comment suggested. I live with many spiders in my home.
