Key points
Use だらけ with a noun to describe something containing too much of that noun, often resulting in a messy, defective, or unpleasant condition. It is not always strictly negative, but まみれ focuses more specifically on being smeared or covered in a substance, while だらけ can also describe mistakes, tourists, paperwork, and other groups or abstract things.
