[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 512790, member: 12995"] I pulled a couple of ticks out of me last summer. I think I got the first one in less than 12 hours since it wasn't attached that well and the other was less than 24 hours. As far as I know, I didn't end up getting anything, no rash or any side affects. I've has skin moles and small blood blisters my whole life so seeing a tick on me is not the easiest thing. The river bank where I keep my boat has a lot of trees and they drop from there, but I've been picking most of them up from my back yard which has no trees, they're everywhere. I see them walking on me or my clothing, my dog, and the best is when you feel something in bed moving in the middle of the night! :oops: My dad got ehrlichiosis years ago from a tick bite. It's similar to Lymes disease so if you do get a tick and don't feel well, get tested for that as well. [/QUOTE]
