The ticks are really REALLY BAD this year.....
hasn't been a day go by that i haven't had one on me

i've been meaning to mention it for awhile
then as i was sitting here typing away
i notice a tick crawling across my monitor

SIDE note... after pulling ticks or finding crawling ones
i've been experimenting with what kills them when they are dropped
into liquids and cooking oil doesn't phase them nor does liquid soap
they can survive a couple of minutes in a microwave
but they don't survive diotomaceous earth (safer brand)
they get dessicated and die in it having no traction like quicksand.
