Thanks guys.
I took a ride to DSG tonight and picked up some of the Sawyer stuff. At least a dozen of them on me again today, a light day.
They are so bad this year it is not funny, it has been keeping me out of the woods more than I would like. The guy at the end of my street gave me permition to park at his house and hunt the high tension lines. After an hour of scouting around and seeing some decent sign, I wont go back. Over a hundred of the little suckers on me! I wanted to puke as I was sweeping them off my legs in clumps.
A friend of mine sat down behind a tree last week to catch a breather as he was doing a lot of walking/scouting. He then broke out his lighter and started to fry the little bastards, he got 18 crispy critters in a pile on his leg before he took a pic of them.
Use the Sawyer and forget about the ticks. Really, it works that well. I guarantee you that if you use the Sawyer and go back there you will not have a tick on you when you come out. It actually kills them so not only will you be tick free you will feel good about killing those bastards.
