Beware Of Ticks!!!

[alabamaslim]

I went on a long hunt yesterday and this morning I noticed I had 3 ticks on me. Right now in the south they are everywhere, and just thought it be a good thing to bring it to everyones attention. Before I found them on me yesterday I didnt even think about it, so pay attention and Godbless,Charlie

Good topic Slim. I found one on me last week and after I took it off the area grew. It got very red, hot, and about the size of 2 hands. It actually hurt to walk. I ended up at the Dr's to get an antibotic, Beale.

Thanks for the reminder. I especially dislike those pesky little "deer tics" that look like freckles.
Good hunting to you!!!!

Thanks for the reminder Slim. They are already getting bad here. We have been cutting wood for several days and do a "tick check" every evening.

Don't forget the repellent for mosquitos too. They can carry some nasties as well.

Safe and happy hunting/detecting all.
