After the worst start to the year I've ever had on the tic front, they seem to have suddenly gone. It's been about 3 weeks now and not one little blighter.. anyone else finding the same?
I've so spoken too soon haven't I? ph34r ph34r ph34r

I've only had one this year, about 3 weeks ago. Fingers crossed. However the red small squirrel ones are usually worse in August round here.

I haven't found any this year at all, usually they have loads. I'm quite disappointed, I love getting them off and squishing them :005:
-
excellent, although I didn't notice you had any spasmodic facial twitchings when I met you.... :lol2:
(that's what I thought when I read the title, then I realised you meant the 8 legged spider variety of Tick!)
oh don't worry, if we EVER see the sunshine again I'm sure they'll be back in force...... ::)

Of course I went and bought the remover and have only used it once. I just hate the idea of them digging into my darling and sucking his blood. But I like to give them a slow painful drowning death down the sink.

Ok, I'll try to reignite my sadistic side. It's been dormant since I got rid of the former OH (divorced, not did in) These days its directed towards green fly and black fly! Finger nails hammer or foot stamp?

I usually pop them by pressing on them with the O-Tom or put them on a baking tray on a tissue and set fire to them... muahahaha ph34r ph34r

See, if you'd been born in a wet miserable country... none of this would have been a problem for you. When you don't know any better, you're usually happy with your lot :005:
'K maybe not, I'm clearly just lucky I don't mind it :lol:

Fingers crossed here! Morgan's been tick-free for about 2 weeks now, prior to that it was 1 or 2 every day >:D >:D

Who needs sunshine... I think someone been having a word with these little blighters to tell them life is better up north (just not too far north....) :005:

Mind, a lot of the ones we're finding recently are teeny, tiny baby ones.... >:D
