– Social: Poverty, Population Density, WASH strategies, Education, Lack of Beds, Shelter Construction, Lack of Shoes
– Environmental: Bare soil, Sandy Soil, Accessibility of Water, Presence of Livestock, Presence of Rodents, Low Rainfall

INTRODUCTION
The Chigoe flea most often affects the feet
• Enable the exploration of layers of data representing various social and ecological factors that can contribute to the prevalence of the Jigger, or Chigoe Flea (Tunga penetrans) superinfestation in Kenya.
This is the first of a series of apps that will aid scientists, activists, government workers, volunteers, and charities in the eventual eradication
of the Chigoe Flea.
