This stuff REALLY WORKS. We use this for our hiking/backpacking/outdoors clothes...keeps the horrid mosquitoes around here away too, and ticks stear clear big time.

The simple fact that we are having a tick thread in early March is enough to depress me a little.
It is going to be a buggy year. Arm up for it.

I use the tweezer method myself, but have heard that "Dawn" (the dish soap) on a cotten ball works, but it takes a few minutes of holding the cotton ball on the tick/animal and don't know about anyone else my dog won't stay still long enough......

Around here I've been finding ticks and fleas on the dog off and on all winter - been a strange winter.......
