gnat bite
Minuscule insect wound
A gnat bite is a small, itchy welt from the bite of a gnat—a tiny flying insect.
Gnat bites are minor irritations, making the phrase useful for describing something trivially small or insignificant: That scratch is nothing—just a gnat bite.
The bites themselves rarely cause serious harm but can be persistently annoying.
