Never seen one yet Beth but have a remover just incase for OH to use. I'm too squeamish  ::)

I'm adept - 2 or 3 a day off Jarv at the moment - just give me a yell and I will squeeze into a leotard and fly up armed with an O-Tom...just call me the T(ick)erminator  ph34r :lol2:

I know - hope you've had your dinner :020:  :shades:

Sarah so do I - my OH is incredulous that I can see little brown ticks on a little brown dog before they attach  ::)

I think it is worse down your way Beth.  Coco had her first (and only so far) tick a few weeks ago  >:(  My cat Tigger had a couple last week which I discovered when he snuggled up to me in bed in the middle of the night  ::) >:(

Never had one on Biba...she must have bad blood  :005:
