Gaiters Jim. Or as we think TnT guards. (Ticks and Trailmix) They also keep pants clean after a day of kicking dirt for monuments and sliding around in the hills.
Flagging is good to tie up everything. Blood leaks! Til it clots. Fingers, shins, and wherever a leaker is! Good to tie up wild flower bouquets, with wet paper towel, to keep them from wilting. Give em to the missus!
And, tie up shirts, with popped buttons, and broken wires...
I found my first deer tick of the season today - even though the lakes are still froze over and we have snow on the ground in some spots. Let the spring/summer Lyme Disease paranoia begin!
I hate ticks !! God made them for some reason. Got deathly sick about 3 years ago from a bacterial infection from tick bite. Out for about two weeks. Temperature of 102° + for about 3 days, rash from face to feet. Dr checks blood work every 6 months for Lyme disease. Buck says it came in office and bit me. Them office ticks bad !!
Yes. i watch the screen as i drive to make sure i'm getting shots off. Some times you have to stop and wait a minute in the real bad spots ( ill let a couple shots go off to make sure its good).
