I hate ticks and on my properties I've never had one on me,however;Sunday a buddy of mine and myself went out to freshen up some minerals and there were ticks every site!!!!!! Anyone else seeing many ticks?

I got 2 off of me last wed while building fence in our Hayfield . They are attracted to me for some reason because I always have them crawling on me and the people around me never get them. Someone told me to buy the menthol/wintergreen rubbing alcohol and spray my clothes with it and I know primithryn works

 

[knightrider]

picked five off this morning

I got 4 off of me Saturday. I was in some pretty bad brush and grass but not all that long. They are bad for sure.

My ankles are destroyed and itch like crazy waking me up every night. I use everything possible from Permethrin to duct tape.

The gloves are off! This means war!

We have them here in SW Tn and it seems they have been getting worse every year for the last 3 or 4 years.

I saw a tick presentation by Dr. Alan Houston of Ames Plantation and these are nasty beasts. There is one tick disease that completely wipes out deer. Seems like it was currently only in S. FL or MS. Birds spread a lot of ticks.

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: Speaking of that, I've thought of using the Frontline stuff I put on my dog on myself and just letting ticks stay in place till they fall off dead! Would save a lot of money on soap and besides it's so hot here in the Summer that you sweat and stink all the time anyhow. :tu: :tu:

Permethrin seems to work for me. That plus tucking pant legs in and using a product like Off on exposed skin. I see ticks crawling on my clothes, but haven't had any on my body yet.

The deer in my trail cam pics seem to have above normal amount of ticks. I pulled a bunch off my clothes but no bites. I marinate my clothes in permethrin.

That's what the wife is for. [emoji1] sometimes I get out and roll around in the grass just so I can get a little attention from the wife.
