Deer ticks..... Horrible year with them around my parts.
If you guys don't already do it, treat your clothes with Permethrin. Most of your tick problems will go away. I used to be one of those guys that would pull ticks off of my clothing then find one dug in at home. Since using permethrin, now I watch them curl up and fall off of my clothes. Treat everything. Boots, pants, hats, shirts, jackets, etc...........
Its a cheap precaution against a very bad disease that is becoming more common. I use Sawyers brand but many folks mix thier own from concentrate bought online. Just used the water based concentrate if you can.
I watched about a dozen ticks fall off my pants this past weekend while archery hunting.
