I hate ticks!The more you all talk of ticks, the more grateful I am we don't have them here in the valleys, that I know I'd. I used to go hiking in the Uintas here. Came home back in the 70's with a tick that had it's belly full on my upper front leg. I was freaking out. Creepy little buggers. Have a daughter that almost always got a tick when we went camping.
