Flea & Tick time

Bruce H · 04-19-2005, 11:30 AM

Found a tick on one of my dogs last nite (I'm in the western suburbs of Minneapolis). This is the earliest I can ever remember seeing them. All the dogs, except the pregnant one, got the Frontline Plus last nite.

Brought home a couple of ticks last week after being in the woods turkey hunting. Wasn't as 'lucky" bringing home a turkey.

is there anything you can use to help keep them off of you?

Some bugsprays say that they repel ticks. It can't hurt to try.

Yup! The dog already has one thats the size of a pea on its back. I didnt pull it off yet, because I didnt have a set of needle nose pliers handy at the time. We went out last weekend, and I had about 5 crawling on me.
