Ticks like crazy!

<< < (3/4) > >>

NimRand:
Yep ticks. My son shot a buck at the end of rifle season here in SE nebraska by the Kansas Border that was covered up with ticks, including engorged females. Ironic part was I shot a doe out from this buck 2 days, prior and not a tick seen.

bow101:
I hear that deer ticks can cause Lyme Disease..?

Hunts with stone:
Yes deer ticks here in the east of the USA. Carry lyme disease. I've been treated for it and many friends to. I use permatone spray on my clothes and I also spray down the seat covers , floors in my truck. It is good for a few weeks and even when wasted. I herd if you put a bucket of bleach water under them when hanging some will drop off into that may help keep the dam things from Crawling around your yard And cooler   

trad bow:
Ticks here in the deep south are an everyday of the year nuisance. I take a teaspoon of vinegar every morning to help keep them and mosquitoes at bay. Works with out spraying chemicals all over me and my clothes.
