Has anyone else noticed a bunch of these already this year? I'm not sure if this is because we've relocated since last year or if there are actually MORE ticks than every before.

I was outdoors, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and not posting here. You didn't notice I was gone.
Mr. nottoofarbehindme, with 14,000 some post, and you have less forum time.

I think and have heard that's it's because of all the mild weather. We didn't have a hard winter to kill them off.Kizzy said:

I would suggest you keep them on it year round. I have always done so with my dogs while living here--simply for the reason I stated above. JMO

As soon as the night temp goes above freezing - I start the preventative - but the girls are vaccinated against Lymes as well. The same goes for their heartworm preventative and so on - meaning, I start before I see mosquitoes..

I can't stand ticks, I always get the heebeejeebees(sp?) everytime I pull them off the ponies.
What I truly hate is when someone looks at you funny and then says "Don't move, there's something on you." I normally start screaming at them to get it off of me while trying not to upset whatever kind of bug is on me.

My husband had one crawl up his pantleg, and he was just out a few minutes, trying to get the dog to come in. I've started the dog on the flea and tick preventative - hope it works. I should probably get some for the cat, too, even tho we don't let him out.
