Add to this the increasing range of most "native" wildlife, and you end up with ticks getting a free ride onto your property (or closer to it).
I wonder if any deer hunters have noticed an increase in ticks on the deer they harvested?

When I was a kid, you NEVER saw a tick on a deer.
I've heard of them having 10's to 100's on them now a days.
