Ticks
Marc St Louis:
We don't see many ticks up here, a good thing. Still I was looking at a neat little tool for removing ticks at a hardware store just yesterday. Made of plastic and looks a bit like plastic tweezers. The instructions said to grab the tick by the head and twist counter clockwise

here is the pliers that I have seen.....maybe similar to Marc's?
Mods, I figured the link was okay as I am not aware of any sponsors selling this....if I'm wrong, kill this post please.

Keep an eye on those bites. I got bitten a couple of years ago and didn't know it. I ended up with Erlichiosis. It was the worst sickness that I've ever had. I can't tell you how bad it makes you feel. Man do I hate ticks. My kids are trained for the 2x a day tick check one spring and summer arrives. Ticks are really bad around here this year. I'm guessing they are enjoying the warm spring as much as we are. ;D
