He knows I have had a few run ins with ticks, and I ain't afraid of spiders, but I don't like ticks. Our dad told us when he was a kid his grandad would put a corncob soaked in coal oil around his neck so when he played with the dogs he wouldn't get ticks. Where we come from down in south Texas the ticks are terrible they live in the sand and will just eat you up.
Oh man I never heard of that one! Poor kid, I'm surprised the dogs or anyone else would play with him!lol That stuff stinks b ut in a kind of good way. Everytime I smell it I think of cellars! Because we always had kerosene lanterns in the cellar as a kid. People were more afraid of storms back then! Everytime it came up a storm we went to the cellar. I remember one night we had 35 people in a dugout cellar that was 6ft by 8 ft!
