That sounds like a lot to me.
I pulled 5 normal ticks off after mushroom hunting Friday and then 8 of those microscopic ticks off. These are the ones that you cannot hardly see. I use duct tape to get them off. Most of them are about half the size of a pin head. Yep, bad again.

We have it like that here in the woods near me, there is also a new disease other than Lyme that is spreading these days that a lot of people are not aware of yet.

I go thru about a 3rd of a can of sportsmans repel everytime I go into the woods. Saturate my snakeboots with it and try not to rub up on any overhanging small pines. Thats where I usually pick up the most seed ticks is off those. The normal wood, deer and dog ticks around here usually come from knee level down so the amount of repel I use must work cause its usually a surprise if I find a tick on me.

Yup I always spray repelant every time I go in the woods, and I spray my yard down with bug killer in the spring and fall. Ever since I had Lyme disease I am more conscious of ticks. The dogs have their lyme vaccanies. I'm not sure why we have lyme vaccines for dogs but not humans.
Yea it is tick season here. Pick them off the dogs and furniture all day. Later than and not as bad as some years.

I've removed 2 ticks off myself this year and that's it. Last year I removed none. I spend a lot of time in my yard and the adjacent woods that form part of my little kingdom and don't see too many. But they're there!!!
Have seen a few on the dog this year but not as bad as years past.. Been real dry though so far. Hate those things... One of the reasons I don't hunt much anymore...
Yep spray inside bottom of paints legs/socks before going hiking. I like checking the gf for em anyway

We kept a ballplayer last year from Alabama. The kid had never seen a tick in his life, he was terrified at the thought of them.

Man I made the mistake of going turkey hunting last year without the permanone how ever you spell it, I can't tell you how many ticks I pulled off me it was crazy. I call them seed ticks they are tiny.
I hate ticks. My daughter has Lyme Disease. I have seen what Lyme Disease can cause.
Yep, bad here around my house. Had 7, 4 dog ticks and 3 seed ticks after cutting the grass last week.. Be careful and watch for signs of Lyme . I got it last year after several found on leg after hunting .
I HATE TICKS!
