Citra47 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Like lots of people, they probably moved to Florida for the winter and just forgot to go back home. We still have them in central Florida. I've removed three from myself and a couple from the dogs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dogs get a dose of Trifexis every month, but we've not had a single tick nor flea in over 5 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holyjohnson Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 we`ve had a lot of rain this year and are overwhelmed in a lot of places. that usually lessens the lil blood sucking bastards and it has so far this year. usually we have terrible ticks by now.

Moshe Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Where there is wet, there are ticks, typically. I had to deal with plenty on the Rio Grande. The last one I got was wearing shorts and taking the rat terrier outside, while wearing shorts. Pulled that little bugger out by hand, and got it all.
