Tick Control

Tick inspection of the dogs is a daily routine, and at nite it is a 3 person job:  one to hold the dog still; one to look for ticks; and the third person to run the crematorium.  I have always known the only way to kill a tick is to burn it with fire; so we have a creamation kit at the ready:  flashlight, tweezers, a small bowl and box of matches. We think we are winning the battle finally, tomorrow we will bug bomb the motorhome and car again and hope the cycle will be over soon.

  1. So what I hear is that even paradise has its drawbacks. Hope the dogs are free of their freeloaders soon. Wish you could post pictures. Is Dr. Vera the tick surgeon? I see Charlie as running the crematorium.
    Miss you Travelers.
