Haven't had many up here in northern Vt but I shot a buck today and after taking care of it and hanging it up my wife found one on my back as it was crawling up my shirt. I hate those damn things.

I've never seen a worse tick year. Wonder if it has anything to do with the inordinate lack of consecutive killing frosts

Had two on me so far this year. One on my cheek (htf did he get THERE?!) the other on forearm.

Real bad here in NJ as well! I do think it has to do with the wet humid weather and the lack of a consistant frost this late in the year. I had a guy (non hunter) help me with my stand this week and he almost crapped his pants when he pulled at least a hunderd ticks off himself. Funny thing was it wasn't even that thick of an area we were walking in.

havent found any on me this season, thank god. I realize the risks of them now that my mom passed away due to a tick carrying lyme disease. be careful with them!
