ticks really fucking bad this year

i would LOVE to get some cedar oil to make a spray with for the dogs and household but that stuff is expensive...

mosquitos are shitty here too. but for the time being up here ticks are primary concern.

i'm telling you op try boron or borax

It kill fleas like nothing i have ever seen

this is what im using right now: [link to www.amazon.com (secure)]

I rub that shit directly into his fur. probably not the original intent of the manufacturer, but the dog seems fine for now.

no fleas, ever. luckily.

Culninary garlic—a broth— saved my hostas but the smell! Like the dumpster of a dirty Greek restaurant or something.

How is your garlic different? Can you mention a product?

talking multiple, multiple acres. the best bet seems to kill off as many mice as possible.

of course rodents always turn out to be the bane of human existence for multiple reasons.

why do people "take fright" whenthey spot a lowly mouse?

its engrained in our DNA to avoid them LIKE THE PLAGUE, for good reason.

Ticks, fleas and lice and mites are off the charts. Now we have "super lice" and "super mites".

I agree with some comments, they've definitely been weaponized.

Yup, Arkansas is bad. Had 1 on my hip last weekend. Nasty bugers. I was at a BBQ and I leaned up on a fence. Stupid!

The US Government Doesn't Care About Us

Some people are going to pick up the hobby of DIY to kill ticks

Because the government won't do shit

Thank you for the green.

This is one of my go to sites for a lot of tips.

Goddamned gnat phase right now where I live in WI. Can't even enjoy my morning coffee and smokes.

Get yourself some free range chickens. They eat hundreds a day

central arkansas here. sorry, my cap key stopped working with the aid of spilled water this morning.

you can get cedar oil in malvern, ar at the cedar mill about 1/4 the price seen online. this is untreated cedar, so untreated oil.

just took delivery of 15,000,000 beneficial nematodes, said to take out eggs and larvae of fleas, ticks, chiggers and all those other creatures which seem to have no use in the world other than to make living hosts suffer.

will see what happens with nematodes. they're in the fridge now, and i have 30 days to activate them.

Research Japanese Knotweed for Lyme disease, just in case it's needed sometime.

I've pulled 3 off of me in the last month alone.

I've never seen them this bad, they are crawling everywhere. I see one a day, AT LEAST

Oh yes looked at property there and got covered in ticks. I quite counting at 60. Omg it was awful. It made me decided not to buy land there.

I ride an electric mountain bike in the Jersey Pine Barrens. This year I had one halfway embedded in my arm and the season just started. I prefer in many ways to ride in the Barrens during winter. Under 35 degrees and the ticks are dead.

As far as weaponized, yes and no. What I mean is the story goes the Japanese(WWII) were testing using ticks as a vector for diseases or viruses to enter the human body once an infected tick bites the human.

OK, after WWII the Japanese tick research was continued by the US Army at a facility called "Plum Island" near Connecticut, Lyme Connecticut to be more exact. It is thought that some amount of "ticks" accidentally were released, blowing across water to Lyme Connecticut.


.....The nefarious history of Plum Island began after World War II when Erich Traub, a German biological warfare expert joined the team. Our government learned of the German penchant for bio-weapons technology through defectors. Significantly, Traub had operated a germ warfare lab on an island in the Baltic Sea....
