Got ticks around here also but I've seen that many in a trap. :scared

ticks are horrible here too. Terry ray, are those ticks that u just pulled off and put in a bottle, or did u trap them there some way? Thanks.

If you live in the country and have a tick problem, guinea fowl are very effective at lowering their numbers.

to be clear about the mosquito magnet, it seems to work in the lab, but I have my doubts about it in the field---it will trap and kill lots of mosquitos, but that may well not compensate for the additional crowds of 'em it attracts.


Most of those ticks (only part of the collection appear in the photo) I pulled off me or my stuff as they were crawling around. Some I did get by doing sweeps, taking a white shirt and brushing it along the vegetation to see if they are hanging out in certain areas--testing effectiveness of barriers, and learn about thier habits and range.


I won't be around the property all the time, I'll be travelling almost half the year, so the guinea hens are out. Some folks do have them, but I don't like the noise and their habit of crapping on your roof.

Have fun with your ticks 65! I wish I could just sight 'em up and shoot them!
