THERE ARE TOO MANY TICKS EVERYWHERE WHAT THE FUCCVKKKKK

New nightmare unlocked.

Don't tell people what to do homp homp

What's wrong? No room to keep chickens in your cute little walkable town?

I just spent the last 2 days on the crawler with the brush hog. FUCK them.

I've been bitten by a tick. It fucking hurts like hell. At first it itches then turns into a big sore. I missed a huge fucking bullet when I felt something on my dick, I went to the bathroom and a tick was on my dick.
I would've been in a world of hell if that tick bit me there. Good god I dodged a bullet.

It's time to start over again. Nuke everything clean and wait 4 billion years, next time we might be lucky and find a biosphere without these creatures.

Does keeping your grass cut actually work or is it cope?

I stopped walking in the woods with my dog off leash because it was basically 50/50 on whether the dog would have a tick or two. Western NY here.

man got his dick sucked by a bug

Aren't these face mites? They are very common everywhere, they aren't considered "bad", but they can cause some skin conditions in some people. You probably have then on you right now.

mine doesn't stop itching for a couple of months. that is even with digging and cutting the head and flesh out of the wound and chucking surgical spirit and h2o2 in there to steralise everything. still scabs up and still itches for months. cunts of creatures.

I had a tick on my dick once too, it didn't bite thank fuck, but I was horrified.

So did I, I think her name was Xang

Get chickens and guinea fowl, you won't find a tick anywhere in your yard and area. I don't even have tick collars on my dog anymore.

Ticks climb tall grass and wait for something to pass by and hitch a ride; it's called "questing".
Cutting grass won't eliminate them but it does keep them from being in a position to hitch a ride as you walk through. You can't SIT in the cut grass without attracting them though

Of course it works, if the grass is cut you trample on them and they can't reach your legs. On the ground the trouble they can make is reduced by 95%.
Once I was afraid of Lyme disease and I took disgusting amost vomit-inducing antibiotics for two weeks

I had to give my dog a course of that anti-lyme stuff and she was not happy...

I was sitting on a bench, leaning forward with my elbows on my knees browsing my phone, and I saw one land on my leg. I thought it was a fly so I smacked it, when it didn't fall off I took a closer look. I didn't know those mother fuckers could jump. They were all over the underside and back of the bench, I killed about 60 of them. I was gonna take a picture but I don't want that image reinforced in my head, it was what nightmares are made of.

They can't jump you fucking tard.

Buy co2 tick traps

If a tick tries to bite me Ill rape it

I would never sit down anywhere ever again

Once I was afraid of Lyme disease and I took disgusting amost vomit-inducing antibiotics for two weeks

Next time look into piperacillin, it's superior to doxycycline for this, and requires a vastly lower dose, so is easily tolerated.

Don't bring that shit over here.

they would probably evolve into giant colorful ticks of hell.

That look like little dinosaurs and teeth with eyeballs.

Ticks or Mayflies?

AYYO DIS NIGGA GOT TICKS SUCKN HIS DICK

questing

These mf'rs think they dark souls wtf

Print more birds and possums n such

land on leg

Wtf do you mean land, they cant fly?

You have me rubbing my cock at work to make sure there's nothing there. I was weeding the yard this morning. Holy fuck I hate T*cks

Chest high grass vs. ~2" is a massive difference.

I'd rather deal with ticks than chiggers. Chiggers are so small you can't see them, they attack in big groups and the bites itch for months instead of a few days.

they jump off branches, they're serious assholes. niggers of the insect world.

had one that i didn't even notice until it was too late that it was CRAWLING AND EATING into my fucking fat belly flab like a good inch in when i was a kid and the nurse had to use duct tape to suffocate the little bastard to get him to come out. why isn't there an invention to fucking exterminate these little fuckers forever?

Oh WHAT THE FUCK THEY CAN RIDE THE STATIC

had little nymphs get all over me once. tiny little specks you can barely see. pulled probably 50 of them of my legs and balls. noticed em while eating lunch at captain d's. went to the bathroom, stripped and knocked about 100 of them off me. on the way out a tranny with bunny ears was on their way into the bathroom as i exited in boxers holding my clothes and boots in my hands. LOL

I used to live out east but moved to Colorado and haven’t seen a tick since

Buy and release some live Possum. Problem solved in just a few days.

I'm telling you that motherfucker jumped from the underside of the bench onto my leg. I don't care what Google says, kike parasites protecting their fellow parasites b/c they know that if people knew ticks can jump we'd probably go to war with them. We allow ticks to exist on the condition that you only get them when you brush up against some tall grass or whatever. These motherfuckers are breaking the rules.

RIDE THE LIGHTNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yup stepped into some dry grass clippings filled with the things. my ankle was a nasty itchy mess for months. i tried putting every, remedy, medicine and caustic substance i could on the shit. finally with time it stopped. i think a visit to the ocean may have helped. but then even months after i would have an itch randomly there and i would almost get PTSD

ticks are proof that god does not exist, satan might be real though

I just looked and they can ride static electric current right off the ground to you. what the shit

NUKE THE TICKS

That's fucked up. Stay grounded, boys.

Doxy was at home so I took this but thanks for the tip

They are truly evil. I'm raising some chicks rn, can't wait to let them run wild and eat all those little fucks.

Yeah those nymphs are a hassle
And ticks are not like normal insects, to kill them is really hard/time consuming.
You can't just crush them, you need to grind them down against stone until their bodies are ripped into pieces or drown them.

FUCKING TICKS AAAACK-

Can hydrogen peroxide kill them? If i just pick em off and drop em inside? Or do I need something like rubbing alc, or pure grain alcohol?

Pro tip for itching

witch-hazel

I think water with liquid soap to reduce the surface tension is enough if you wait several hours

It's because you need persistent heavy cold during winter to kill the ones that are hibernating, and with the climate changing, winters have been getting less and less cold. Sure we get the odd arctic blast, but those are intermittent. Not enough to kill pests thoroughly.

Keep your grass cut and then either use a hose end sprayer or a backpack sprayer to put some bifenthrin down every few months. Keeps most critters under control

You voted for this.

Never seen a tick in my life until 2010, now they’re fucking everywhere and relentless.

yeah whats up with that? Why doesnt florida have much ticks? i hiked in starkey tall grass all weekend last weekend not a single one

This.

We have a crazy amount of animals that eat ticks. Pretty much everything that does lives here in large numbers.
