    Default Ticks

    Ticks are in my area and some carry lyme disease.
    Lyme disease - PubMed Health

    The ticks are in the wild at present and often attach to dogs. The ticks have only appeared over the last several years in this area. They are of real concern, since the medical profession often cannot diagnose the early symptoms, when treatment is most effective.

    The long term effects of not treated lyme disease is devastating.

    It is devastating. I have been treated multiple times over the last few years because it wont go away. My son has had it, 2 of the dogs despite being vaccinated. . We had a significant reduction in found ticks this year due to the chickens and guineas. Yeah for pesticide free bug control!
