Ah yes, I remember tick well- from my growing up in Arizona. We didn't have that nifty little tick-scoop. See how time has changed even the ucky parts of outdoor life? Bless her little heart - hopefully, that will be the first and LAST tick on her this season :-)

Yikes!! Don't get me started about ticks - I hate them - yes a low year for them - so far so good. I live in your sister province to the north, Nova Scotia and I miss Maine a lot.As for slugs, have been fighting a battle ever since I planted aquilegia - and at least once a day I go out and stomp on them, and appear to be winning the contest. Don't know what PETA would say about that but I

FLEAS!!!!! that is what you get when it rains!!! so you may have mudd, but at least your ankles don't look like swiss cheese... the dog, the cat, the yard, the humans, ( do chickens get fleas). We have treated the yard, the animals the humans, but until it gets out of the 70% humidity and stops raining for awhile we are all a rotating smorgasbord of blood types for these things. But.. ticks

Ha ha!

This has been a very low tick year. Hardly any. One on me, a couple on Tom, and only a few on the dogs. Other years I'd find a tick every time I patted my Ben and Sadie. I think everyone around us has

It's pretty rainy in Vermont too! Thanks for your comment on my blog. It is fun to see who is reading and I was glad to check out yours! I used to live in Maine for years. I miss it very much.

Great post. We are in tick country too and we are always very careful to do a tick check when we come in from outdoors. Like you, we haven't been able to get out much cause of the rain. Looks like the sun is heading our way by weeks end. Lets cross our fingers...maybe summmer will finally arrive.
