Speaking of, he got up this morning all cranky at me for messing with his ear all night.  He said I kept tickling his ear with my fingers in my sleep and it kept him up all night.  Ten minutes later I saw a tick in his ear, yeah, sucking the life out of him.
I would've been screaming.  Ticks are new to us, I think i've only seen mosquitos once or twice as well.
We have no ticks here in the desert.  We did have a few when I lived in Bishop, but the southern parts of this state, not so much.  Fleas yes, ticks no.  No fleas in the desert either.
