Re: Ticks & Mosquitos 101
If you have ever heard the new song "Tick" by Brad Paisley going places where ticks are could come in handy.

Re: Ticks & Mosquitos 101
I heard over the winter that the extended warm weather through January might make the tick and mosquito threat much worse this year. The long cold weather will kill off many that didn't this year. Be careful.

Re: Ticks & Mosquitos 101
I've never had a tick on me in my life until this year. I've had three of the Michigan genus in the past 2 weeks, and another today from along the Mighty Maumee River either at Sidecut or Perrysburg. I guess I'm going to have to start spraying before caching
Re: Ticks & Mosquitos 101
I did Glacier Trailing on the west side of Ohio last week and had 15 of them on me when I got back to the car!! 15! Gross.

Glacier Trailing is one of the oldest caches in the area but I never found it yet.jsj444 wrote:I did Glacier Trailing on the west side of Ohio last week and had 15 of them on me when I got back to the car!! 15! Gross.
Re: Ticks & Mosquitos 101
Its a cool cache, I liked it a lot. Just didn't dig all those tics.

I interpret "this year" and "overall" as two different items. Any way you slice it it's "creepy".
