got lyme disease this year, lemme tellyou , you dont want it. get some premethrin spray and treat your clothes... it dries odorless, deer don't smell it.

some of my spots here in the center of NY, you'll get 20-30 ticks on you walking 50 yards to your stand in THE OPEN HARDWOODS. go in the brush/ forget it!

when i hang my deer , i spray em on the outside with the premrethrin or permanone spray, the next day there will be 30 to 100 ticks on the garage floor... dont even want to think about the infestation if i didnt spray em..

keep alert for those suckers!
