    Yes, gnats bite, but most people don't notice. Your grandson must just be super sensitive to them. I volunteer at a church camp every summer that has a horrible gnat problem, and every summer we have a couple of people- both children and adults- who end up looking like lobsters, they have so many tiny red bites on their bodies.

    I've never been bitten by a gnat, but that doesn't mean anything. However, there are other baddies that can bite you, like spiders or sand fleas, depending on where you live.

    Gnats do bite. It could also be bed bugs.
