Anyone been finding any ticks lately?
I was finding some crawling up my pants in the spring, but haven't seen one all summer while going around the archery course at my club. I'm actually kind of perplexed, unless the permethrin and deet have really been working that well. Hope that continues through hunting season...
I agree tick count is way down... I've been out every weekend cutting lanes, scouting ,etc. Haven't seen a tick on me since spring. I do wear Permethrin but usually I'll still check myself now and then and see one. But not since spring.... I'm not complaining. Tons of mosquitoes though. Deer flies too. Swamps are loaded...
Wear permethrin folks.

Yup, works great, I hardly ever get ticks hunting because of it. Pulled a camera card at lunch today in my work clothes. Pulled 4 off me after and just now pulled one off my groin that was starting to dig in. Needed the tweezers, it wasn't just strolling around. **** I hate these things!!!
Is it a shallow well? If it is a deep well, I wouldn't be concerned, I am much more paranoid about ticks than about human exposure to pyrethroids!I'm afraid to use this stuff because I have a well. Anyone else feel this way? Am I being paranoid?
I've been continually removing deer ticks from the dogs. It seems the treatments aren't very effective, and the number of ticks seems to only be increasing.
Do you use permethrin on your hunting cloths during deer season.. I know it says odor free but I am skeptical they will be able to smell it
