[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar I, post: 48300, member: 3755"] So, I went to my Book Club last night? With a patch of duct tape on my arm for just in case someone got a woodtick? And the ladies' opinions were split right down the middle as to what we might do to keep them away from us. Half believe woodticks are no big deal. (These would be the same ladies who believe hiking through the wilderness is an activity appropriate to humans.) And half were shuddering and rolling their eyes at the very mention of woodticks, and found the duct-tape-on-your-arm-just-in-case-one-gets-on-you-in-public to be a very good idea. Okay. So maybe it wasn't split quite down the middle. But there was one other lady who found it quite clever. husband just shook his head when I went out with the duct tape on my wrist for just in case. Plus, I am sleeping in the other room with the cat lately (who doesn't go outside, either) so woodticks will not crawl off the dog and onto me. Let them have husband, I say. I woke up last Spring with a woodtick crawling in my ear. It was like a nightmare in the middle of the night, where you just can't believe what seems to be happening is real. They have to be coming in on the dog. Eeewwhh.... Barbara . [/QUOTE]
