Default RE: Bitten by deer tick

Lyme is very scary stuff! It can mess you up bad.We have quite a few instances of people getting Lyme in our area.I had a great hunting spot in Dutchess county that I abandoned because I was pulling ticks off my clothing to frequently when I went over the Hudson River to hunt there.
You are lucky if you get the bulls eye rash,so at least you know that you have it! I typically get tested once a year out of pure precaution.I personally know two people who's lives were turned upside down because of their bouts with Lyme disease,it is serious stuff!!
