Ticks

Do they pose a threat to your plants? Everytime i go out to my garden i see them lurking. Im really not bothered by snakes and spiders but damn i hate ticks Ugh i just itch thinking about em.

ticks pose no threat to your plant they only bite mammals like you
i got bit by a deer tick when i was younger and got Lyme disease got really sick for like 2 months and had to be treated for another 2
if you see any red rings around a bite mark go to doctors

I know what they are capable of. It's just that i have never seen so many so early on in the season. Plus i have 3 dogs so that doesn't help. Looks like im doing laundry tonite. And is it true once you have lyme disease you carry it all througout your life?

He does that, I kinda like it. Leaves me wondering.

For your gods.. shit, I mean dogs! Biospot. It WILL last a month, easily, unless you frequently bathe them. If you bathe them a lot, then you have to reapply after each bath. Don't listen to the vet who says, "Oh, you HAVE to use Frontline." Fucking bullshit, bullSHIT. I first found this stuff at a local Petschmo ten years ago when I first adopted our now-old dog. She was always in the weeds, always full of fleas and ticks. I couldn't afford the Frontline, and it doesn't kill ticks! Biospot and I watched the fleas drop off dead, and then a few hours later all the ticks dropped off, DEAD. Fucking parasites.d

That's what I love about living at elevation, no fleas. Still have ticks, though.

no you don't carry the disease throwout your life
but you will always test positive for it even though you don't have it.
min got so bad if i went much longer before treatment i could have died
they also said my IQ could have dropped 24 points because it was at such a bad stage

Nearly every time i come back from my plot i find 1 or 2 ticks on me.....I got told to go to the doctor to get an injection to prevent getting sick, and then another person told me the injection you get is all shit (his sister got lyme disease and still had an injetion for ticks). Its just because i am in another country and although if i did get sick here it would cost me a whole lot more in hospital bills.......i think i just answered my own question! tanks
