Like HL, we take them off our dog practically every day. They're a problem up here for people who work in the outdoors on the estates. I know a few people with chronic Lyme disease. It affects people in different ways. My barber has her central nervous system affected. It gives her similar symptoms to chronic fatigue syndrome. I also know a ghillie who has heart problems due to it.
Ticks are the reason I tend to wimp out when wild-camping, and carry a proper tent rather than a bivvy and tarp.

Find a resilient place and way to live, then sit back and watch a momentous period in history unfold.
