I didn't see any ticks during turkey season and I thought that was odd. They are out now for sure, dog has been bringing them home and a rabit that the cat caught had some as well. Be careful out there.

My wife had 5 on her after helping me trim a trail. I bought some permethrin and mixed it in a spray bottle.

I just mixed me up a new bottle today as well. I used it to kill wasps/bees and spray on their nests as well. Works great.

They are very bad here. I have pulled 8 that were stuck on me during turkey season and I was using permethrin. The itching where they bit me is terrible. One was in my belly button.

The one that I pulled from my belly button was a lone star tick. It is looking pretty nasty. Turning black and a rash around it. I went to the doctor today. They drew blood for a test for tick diseases and started me on a 14-day run of doxcillian. I'm sure I just spelled that drug wrong.

I will be treating my yard as soon as I make it to the co op in Evansville. They had me on some stuff a couple of years ago that knocked them off my turf. Wife and kids will be our of town next week so that should work out well. Just have to treat one area at a time and keep the dog out each day.
